I didn't identify hardly at all with the main character, life wise or personality wise, and I definitely found certains aspects of her story more engaging than others. (I enjoyed reading about her exploration of breaking into houses more than her childhood/family reflections for example) The ending was also just a little strange where it left off in my opinion. One other interesting aspect was the near future climate crisis setting. I wonder if the author was making a point about how even as the world heats up and global warming thrives people are still unfortunately only concerned with their own self-centered everyday issues.
