i feel like i maybe didnt read this book at the right time in my life- i might have to be a bit older. i think there is probably a lot of rereadability here. there are so many people i think this book can click with more than i did at this point in my life right now.
that being said i really appreciated quite a realistic depiction of a mental illness and how it made the main character pretty unlikable for most of the book. the writing was a little too millennial coded for me to fully enjoy on its own. i also think things wrap up way too nicely in the end but there is still some realism there.
