i really enjoyed the writing style, the philosophy, the themes around art and motherhood, all very interesting. it was very hard for me to read about

and it got a little tedious at times but one could argue that goes with the theme of stay-at-home motherhood and every day being the same

3.5. the contrast between her rage and disdain and her giving into her motherhood was what i really enjoyed. it went too far for me though and started to feel repetitive
