My Year of Rest and Relaxation by Ottessa Moshfegh
Did not finish book. Stopped at 59%.
Otessa’s a good writer. But I’ve never met another protagonist I rooted so wholly against. I felt so edged by the little glimpses of her trauma, her grief. And to know nothing else would come of those fleeting moments was what caused me to put it down. I so wish I had loved this one… or even liked it…
