Eileen by Ottessa Moshfegh
Did not finish book. Stopped at 30%.

Honestly, I just found it so unappealing/monotone/sporadic I understand that some characters are thinking differently than what they actually do but in this case, it would just sell mine normally boring even with the case with doing something against the social norm
