This is a very 'real' book in which a lot of things happen. It's biggest strength and it's biggest weakness are the amount of detail that is given on the inner workings of the main character. It was by no means bad but doesn't quite warrant 4 stars.

One thing about me is — I never really enjoy love triangles. Especially when the whole entire plot is a love triangle. I did, however, appreciate the bisexual representation here.

An extraordinary debut novel. Razor sharp, woke and darkly funny self-analysis by a young Irish woman with two lovers, living in Hong Kong.
