I felt like I was supposed to hate the main character but she was also relatable?? Loved the world building.
Hate that she reconciled with Crystal I HATE her. Just wanted more from the ending

What if you could live inside your comfort TV show? That is what Bonnie chooses to do after winning the lottery. 

The problem is, If you strip the impressive attention to Three’s Company detail away, you are left with an unlikable narrator and multiple plot points that make no sense. What is meant as an exploration of grief and trauma does not stand up to the book’s gimmick.

as soon as rita showed up, i immediately sat up straighter and went "gay?" and lo and behold i was right


the main characters intense obsession with a piece of media to the degree of consumption to avoid dealing with the world around her was one of the most real things i have ever read

An absurd and introspective work of fiction that uses pop culture, in this case, Three’s Company, where obsession turns to madness, to deal with loss and trauma.
