Female protagonist slowly losing her grip on reality? Sign me up, babe. This novel was able to tackle high-level subject matter -- class, race, privilege -- in a deceptively simple fashion. It's a story about what it's like to be surrounded by wealth but not have it yourself, then to start wondering who actually deserves it -- and why not you?
