No plot just vibes sad girl vampire who watches Buffy, has a difficult relationship with her aging mother, and just graduated art school. Featuring a really weird relationship with food that'll resonate with anyone who considered but did not succeed in drastically altering their diet.
That's all folks. That's the book. And I loved it.
Recommended if you're into aching passages about food and food craving, traumatic mother-daughter bonds challenged by distance and dementia, and lots of pining. Kept me up until 3am so I could finish it and I underlined several passages, so it's earned full marks. 5 stars.
And I will reiterate: Sad girl vampire!!
