Lighthearted but with an underlying sadness and feeling of emptiness. Leaning on the dystopia. Explores work themes in a world where a job is your only important identity. Temporary jobs but always in search of the one that'll stick. Whimsy, childlike/innocent narration, funny, heartbreaking. One of the best books I've ever read.

I really loved this book. It was so fun and also really sad and I related to it strongly as a young women kind of moving through life and work. It's a very quick read and we follow the unnamed narrator through her work. It's a really good and interesting and thought-provoking time.
