3.75
The weirdest book I've ever read. But also I was engrossed by it. Couldn't put it down. I read half of it in the first sitting then was thinking about it even when I wasn't reading it. I finished it in less than a day.
"This was the thing about boundaries: they made sense in therapy, but when you tried to implement them in the real world, people had no idea what you were talking about. Or deep down they knew exactly what you were talking about and immediately set to work reinforcing their case of denial."
I will remember the line about how her going to her mother for praise/support was like going to the hardware store for milk.
Problematic? Absolutely. [ She fucks a woman who is her "worst nightmare" of what she would look like if she was fat. I don't know what I expected the ending to be. It felt a bit sudden and also leaves you with many questions. (hide spoiler)]
So an extremely weird book with a touch of incest-vibes but it's really captivating. I think I'd give this a 3.75.
