I loved this odd little novel! I borrowed it from the library because I was curious about a novel that's set entirely in one night as the protagonist lies in bed thinking, but I wasn't expecting to actually like it. I was just curious to see how the author did it. 

But I started reading and couldn't stop. It's wonderful. It was like being inside the head of another over-thinker, haha! She was such a real character. I'm not sure why I found sharing her head so compelling, but I did. A truly brilliant novel!
