I enjoyed this book. Nothing really happens, and it’s basically just millennials talking and complaining about life. It’s peaceful, in a way, and I enjoy the pretentious philosophical rants in the middle. The characters are realistic and well-developed, except for maybe Alice, who is quite clearly a self-insert. It’s very contemporary, which makes it relatable and somewhat cringeworthy at the same time.
