Though the sections about Cassie’s mother were poignant, a lot of this book felt like a blur to me. And as someone from the Bay I recognize the dangerous hustle culture but still didn’t love the overall tone in which SF was portrayed.

The ending felt inevitable which I was fine with, but I maybe expected more.
