Amended review:
Ok, the racism is way worse when you’re paying attention to it.
That being said, you can’t discount Path’s incredible talent.
I’d call this book quintessential to the depressed, spoiled, white girl genre, which we love. It’s The Bell Jar, My Year of Rest and Relaxation, and Virgin Suicides trifecta.

I’m giving it 5 stars, not because I’m sure I understand it, but because it’s incredible enough to read again because I WANT to understand it.
