funny hopeful sad medium-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? It's complicated
• Loveable characters? It's complicated
• Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
• Flaws of characters a main focus? No

I'm not sure I get it, but there was something pleasantly pleasing about the book. Like a bunch of random, Seinfeld moments tied together.

There were some beautiful moments and phrases. But it ended a bit suddently - never really fully came together for me.

This wasn't for me. I'm not a fan of this kind of humor. All these small observations that were supposed to be funny ruined the book for me honestly.

I would actually give this a 3.33. It has some beautiful moments in it. I love this quote/sentiment -

'If I were you is something I've never really understood. Why say, "If I were you"? Why say, "If I were you," when the problem is you're not me? I wish people would say, "Since I am me," followed by whatever advice it is they have.'
