A good portion of this book takes place during the COVID-19 pandemic and describes the character’s experiences with that.stopprivatejets's review against another edition

This story reads like a conversation. It is not filled with drama and action, but raw human emotion and interaction. I’ve never read prose like this before and I loved it. I listened to the audio book and found myself giggling at my desk at the end of Chapter 2.
I’ll now be buying the physical copy because I need to read this again and desperately need to make notes!
Two of my favourite lines:
1. “If you were a musician, you got to be viscerally magical.”
2. “When I’m talking to you, I’m a funnier and smarter version of myself because you are funny and smart.”
