I tried, I tried so hard. I got so close but I could not finish this. It started strong but it was all downhill from there. Audiobook, reading book, I just couldn't keep going.

5/5⭐️

Mary is ordinary, she's plain, she's a little weird. She's single, child-free, with no friends and one family member. When her sickly aunt calls her out of desperation to come back to her small desert town and help her, it's the beginning of a terrifying journey.

I love this. I love everything about this. How realistic it is to be an invisible woman in the world, to have healthcare providers brush off your concerns, to come to terms with that fact that you're taught to not take up space. And all this written by a cis/het man??

I really liked this book. The tone, the humor, and the viewpoint were all on point for me.
