This book follows a couple, Remy and Alicia, who are obsessed with Remy’s old colleague, Jen. In the beginning, it’s a nice commentary on parasocial relationships but it quickly becomes very oddly laid out. I personally found the dialogue very weird and I had trouble really seeing the connection between all the parts in the book, which may just be my fault but the transitions don’t really make sense either. We’ll be in the apartment, then suddenly we’re at one of the characters place of employment and then right back to the apartment. It is a pretty quick read, and good if you’re looking for something interesting and quick but it could definitely have been improved in some areas. I noticed a few spelling errors within the book as well, but overall, I enjoyed it.
