I will say that I don't think I completely understood the stream of conscious that she had sometimes, but I think this book was really well written and has a lot of re-readability potential. Especially because the main character is NOT a reliable narrator, and I'd love to read more from the class perspective. Plus, she offers an interesting pov where she really overthinks and clinically therapizes herself. PLUS getting into her relationship with gender. Already want to reread it lol.
