I was quite disappointed in this book. It's been raved about on social media, but it was quite average. Filling an entire book up with lists , that fill so many pages up, is just a boring and lazy device. Sometimes there were 3 or so huge lists in a chapter. It could have quite easily just been an article to be honest. She can write, but this was quite boring. Not so sure it was a novel really either.  It read more like a memoir.
