3.0

I feel like I am missing what other people are seeing in this book. I cannot believe anyone ever labeled this book as funny. It definitely isn’t funny? It’s very slow, the twist at the end is just thrown in. The first 270 pages are day to day and absolutely drag. If you’re a seasoned thriller, murder mystery, horror etc reader this isn’t for you. I don’t really get what part of it was supposed to be funny and I think it’s making me dislike the book even more. This was honestly a super boring book. 

The main character was just a stereotypically neurodiverse person who struggles with socializing and human connections, I think her social “weirdness” was supposed to be what’s funny but I’m not even sure.
