Although the main character’s stagnancy was awkward, it was engaging and I wanted to know more about how her and Paolo’s relationship would deepen 😳
3 out of 5 stars for me, thank you ✨ Content warnings below!

Honestly, I found this book quite hard to listen to (listened to this book). It was only short, and thank god for that. It made me feel icky and gross, like I was too covered in sticky popcorn physically and emotionally as the main character often is. Thats why I think it's an excellent book, but it will not improve your mood. I read this in the shortest amount of time i've ever read a book, reading for hours at a time just because of how my last couple of days have turned out. That is probably why it made me feel the way it did, because I had spent a lot of time immersed in the book.

Set in cinema this is also a satire on capitalism, corporatism of cinema and the day to day reality of the 9 to 5 grind.
This book is very grotesque throughout and is full of bodily fluid but I think that's in part due to the film references that were completely lost on me.
I don't think think this book would be to everyone taste.
