What a lovely book! I’ve got to say, the advertisement of the book was a bit misleading, so I was pleasantly surprised. I came into this book thinking it would be a kooky read just about a woman obsessed with her printer, but it was so much more. Her loneliness and connection with another object was so well written, and interspersing her guilt of a childhood act was an addition that truly added to the story.
The chapter “peer review” was surprising to me, and makes me want to talk to my printer more (not that I have one). I really enjoyed this addition, although I can imagine some people not liking it as it brought the story more far-fetched.
I enjoy the positive ending of new beginnings and shackles being free, I like to imagine that our main character found something she could find pleasure in and she didn’t fall into the same cycle of paranoia.
I do wish for the book to have explored the childhood story slightly more (I felt the story didn’t wrap up) and it also seemed her allergy was forgotten. As said above, I also wish she found something that brought her joy - although this is just a personal preference, rather than what impacted my score.
