3.5
I liked the themes of unchanging patriarchy, consumerism, the world of make believe that is Instagram and allusions to women's agency and passivity even in today's times, the ending went a bit magical realism which I get the symbolism of and often love open ended interpretations but I wished we had more from the protagonist. Intelligent book overall.
