Enjoyed the concept and there were some really profound lines that stuck with me. Story made me feel really sad.

Girl (autistic) trues to navigate her way through working in an office, neuroses and past trauma, and falls in love with her printer. The printer reciprocates. Not as wacky as I would have liked, and I wish some sub-plots were further explored - but I really enjoyed this.

Though not quite living up to the advertised tagline of ‘girl meets printer’, this was intriguing and unique enough for me to keep reading. The capitalist machine numbs the unnamed central character, who talks to her printer to make her days at work more interesting. I did find myself tuning out at times, as it was written in a deliberately rambling style, and I’m not sure that the flashback/intertwined back story quite worked. Nonetheless, I’m glad I read it and would recommend to anyone who likes quirky lit fic.
