Excellent writing! Intrigued to keep reading despite the main character being the worst person ever—but as that was the point, it was slightly more bearable. Not to say I still didn't roll my eyes enough times to roll them out of my sockets.

I was, however, dissatisfied with the ending. It came too abruptly, almost hurriedly. I wished for a more "tying frayed ends together" sort of ending.
