This book was fine. I wished it had a plot sometimes, but the characters were also compelling. It was a super fast read which I appreciated. Overall, just meh feelings about it. Didn’t love it, but didn’t hate it.

I love a truly unlikable female protagonist.  She isn't being misunderstood by the system. She's just fucking up.

Clickbait follows Natasha, a disgraced journalist, post the worst decision of her life. As a result of this decision, Natasha is back in New York living in a depressing apartment in the Rockaways. When her ex boyfriend moves back to NY and offers him her extra bedroom she hopes for more than just a friendship.

I received this ARC from NetGalley, thank you! This book was fantastic. Natasha is such an unlikable and selfish woman you can’t help but hope for better for her. I really loved the characters, particularly Olinka, and could not stop reading. The ending was very satisfying and really changed my view of Natasha. I found the relationship between Natasha and her sister Miriam really interesting and real. Overall, great book!
