 Little Weirds meets Gone Girl meets Edie Richter is Not Alone (which is a great read if you like this). Sentence after sentence that made me insane, subtle little turns of phrase so effective yet so minimalist that they rarely cross the line into overwrought, observations fresh enough so as not to be cliche but obvious enough that you can’t believe it hadn’t crossed your mind. Just really really good.
