an interesting story about the loneliness & awkwardness of young adulthood & trying to find your way as you "become" an adult. i imagine it would've been a little more impactful to me had i read it for the first time as a teenager instead of a guy in his 30s but there still is a sense of loneliness that resonates with me even now. i enjoyed the easy-going flow of the story & will revisit this again.
