What the book did well:
It was like a rollercoaster never knowing what was coming next
When characters were confused or drunk or sad - that is how the writing made me feel
Conveys the reality of mother daughter relationships and the complexity of them
I however did not enjoy the book as a whole, I enjoyed the concept but felt it was a bit all over the place, lacked a proper plot, the ending felt unfinished
