You Exist Too Much by Zaina Arafat
4.5
You Exist Too Much is the story of a Palestinian-American woman’s summer of healing.
I don't really know how to write a review of this book because I loved it, but I don’t have many substantial thoughts about it.
The main character is such a flawed character, but I found myself able to empathize with her.
I loved the way the author incorporated flashbacks throughout the book. It was a gorgeous way of showing trauma triggers and hinting at a stream-of-consciousness style.
I definitely understand the hype that this book has received.
CW: Palestinian genocide; toxic relationships; domestic abuse; emotional abuse; cheating; adult-minor relationship; toxic relationships (everywhere)
