Why We Broke Up by Daniel Handler
1.0

Awful, self-important hipsters. I could rant about this book, but it doesn't deserve the energy. Suffice to say: Handler sets quirkiness up as the ideal character trait (and the more quirky and unique something is, apparently, the more morally correct it is), has an awful cop-out and character assassination of an ending, and feeds into the shitty Nice Guy myth.
