It’s possible I didn’t give this book enough attention because I was underwhelmed at times but the premise is interesting. I totally understand the anxiety element of the story and I think that was wonderfully portrayed.

I enjoyed reading this novel. The writing is great, the perspective is fresh, and the layers are deep. 
It could easily be a 4 star read but it somehow just missed the mark. 

Not into the aimless young person, workplace novel (e g convenience store woman). Also thought this would be way weirder.

I really loved this book. I went in to it knowing the "girl meets printer" premise and expected some strange love story but actually it's much deeper than that and very relatable. Our main character is stressed out in a dead end job reflecting on her upbringing in a low income area now working in a tourist hot spot. This book hits on so much so easily in such a short amount of time. Plot wise nothing really happens it's quite mundane but it's her inner monologue that really makes you think and relate to her and make you think yeah maybe falling for a printer isn't that crazy.
