My Year of Rest and Relaxation? More like My Year of Whining and Complaining.

I ABSOLUTELY HATE books with rich pretty whiny ass bitches who think their life is the worst and keep complaining about everything even though their life is just as normal as everyone else.

The MC who doesn't even have a name is whining about being rich and being able to do whatever she wants, whining about being pretty "Even at my worst, I knew I still looked good." Can you please shut the fuck up (not)respectfully. She also keeps complaining about literally all the people she knows thinking the world revolves around her. And let's not forget the awful ammount of penises described in this book. Gross.

BuT iT DEpICts DePresSiON So PErfEctLY. No it doesn't. Not every depressed person is a self-centered bitch.

"Merricat, would you like a cup of tea?"
"Oh no, said Merricat, you'll poison me."

I really cannot begin to express how much I love this book. It's just brilliant. Absolutely BRILLIANT.
