A review by effys
My Year of Rest and Relaxation by Ottessa Moshfegh

This book has definitely left me in need of something a bit lighthearted after that. 

This was a strange experience of a book, it definitely wasn't an enjoyable experience of a book but I liked reading it. The main character is hateable as all hell, she has one friend who is too nice for putting up with the MCs shit. 

My only real issue with the book was
it was so blatantly obvious that Reva was going to die in 9/11 i figured from the get go that 9/11 was going to be involved somehow because it's New York and it starts in 2000 but I feel like if we hadn't been told WHERE Reva was going to be working it could've been more impactful
