A character constantly acts like the protagonist is worthless for being an unmarried woman in her thirties. The protagonist faces a lot of pressure to find a boyfriend/get married despite not wanting to. The protagonist is autistic coded, whilst it isn't specified and faces a lot of ableist judgement. There is talk of a dead bird near the beginning.

I read her latest novel “Earthlings” first and I think it did what “Convenience store woman” tried to do much better!
