This is quite a strange book. At times it’s funny, clever and very relatable, but other times it feels like there’s no plot at all and too many random facts and quotes jumbled together. It’s a little about marriage, family life and addiction; and a lot about climate anxiety and a woman’s daily life, thoughts and acquaintances. Definitely an interesting read, but I always had to convince myself to pick it back up.
