Alright, add it to my pile of unpopular opinions. I love this! I totally get why people don’t like it but I am not one of those people. Maggie is an unlikeable, mostly deranged divorcee (or soon to be) who acts as if the world revolves around her. And yes, the character is hyperbolic to the point of almost painful, but there’s a little bit of everyone here. A unique take on divorce in chick lit isn’t an easy feat, but somehow the author made it so the “finding yourself” trope felt fresh and believable. If you’ve ever been through a rough breakup, or suffered imposter syndrome, or struggled with body dysmorphia, there’s at least something in here that will speak to you.
