A very out-there, engaging book. You totally get absorbed in Bonnie's voice, feeling her passion and her paranoia. I was worried I might struggle not knowing anything about Three's Company, but the book gives you what you need and is less about the show itself than struggles between the need for space and the need for love, between painful reality and unstable fantasy. I would recommend this if you liked My Year of Rest and Relaxation.

I certainly anticipated that this would be insane, but nothing could have prepared me for how deeply unhinged this was. Fucking fantastic. Every chapter was fascinating. So close to perfect were it not for Bonnie being mean to the dog, but that's really a me thing, probably not the most valid critique.

Easy enough to breeze through. But it had the most disappointing and unrelated main character. It might be a commentary on trauma and attachment related disorders (which I would think I'd be able to relate to) but instead I'm just sitting there like "I cannot with her"........the whole time 

Interesting character, didn’t love the ending though and plot a bit hard to follow
