It veered, about 2/3 of the way through, to feeling too autobiographical in tone - like that one chapter needed another round of edits. But it was brought back on track, and the ending was satisfyingly unsatisfactory.
What I would recommend to people who like Sally Rooney or who wanted to like Sally Rooney, but didn’t (like me).

I do like that Martha (and her mom) are held accountable for their actions. I thought the descriptions of having a mental illness were fairly accurate, the constant push and pull on wanting to do more, get better, clean up, make friends, etc. with the total lack of desire, motivation and discipline.
