Liked how real the characters felt but i didn't like them very much. Felt a little pretentious at times but maybe that was the point. Maybe would have felt better if the protagonist didn't seem to have so many similarities to the author in physical description and career trajectory. I did enjoy the writing though. Spin-off about Zoe would be cool.
