(Synopsis maybe to come)
It’s a brilliant debut for sure.
The writing is captivating, the plot moves at a very good pace — and it walks the line between telling you everything you need to know while still keeping you guessing. During the course of the book, the protagonist’s mental health steadily declines, which is beautifully reflected in the writing style becoming a tad more erratic.
It highlights basically everything that’s wrong with today’s world in regards to sexism — not a single woman in this book was happy. If you happen to have read «How To Fall Out Of Love Madly», there was the same amount of happy women here: one. The one that’s living by herself without much human contact. Still, it’s a very, very recommendable book.
