this is a cute read about what it feels like to be in your mid-thirties, feeling like everyone else has their life figured out and you’ve missed “the memo”. it has a time travel element thrown in which i liked, but it inevitably adds some confusion when it comes to the storytelling. there were bits along the way i didn’t love as much (some of the main character’s decisions), but overall i was happy with the final outcome! recommend if you’re looking for a light read with a touch of existential dread.

thanks to netgalley and harper perennial for my ARC of the memo by rachel dodes and lauren mechling. all opinions are my own.

Bought it in an airport & read it on a plane, which seems right. I'm not sure what moral I was meant to take away from it (aside from bread is good, which agree)
emotional mysterious medium-paced
