I had high expectations based on what I'd heard going in, but this was just not that interesting to me. feels like it didn't age all that well. essentially, younger coworker finds a kindred spirit in his older coworker. ends up reading a sort of memoir the older guy wrote. turns out he's a boring guy that had a few months of excitement with a manic pixie dream girl and it ends with a not so surprising twist
