Prose was well done, but I literally hated every character in this book. Extra hated the one who compared herself to an Auschwitz survivor. Premise was cool but not really used to fullest extent (though I realize it’s probably not the point).
Y’all, if you think your life is meaningless because of doom-scrolling & how you hate your job, here’s a tip: you can put your phone down — you can even leave the house without it, don’t worry, you won’t die. And you can just get another job. If you’re disappointed in contemporary life … well, you’re the boss of your life & you can decide to change it. I don’t know. I’m fairly pissed off about this book.
