The book is bookended by the election of Obama and Trump’s inauguration. While the book isn’t political per se, these events impact Jess’s life and worldview in similar ways it effected all of us. It also makes up the bulk of her young adulthood (as it did mine, I was the same age as her in the book), and it’s really something to watch someone grow and handle these two very different events.
This book is a bit of an emotional roller coaster and will give you a LOT of feelings. Be ready to rage against patriarchy, corporate bullshit, and white privilege. Also he ready to swoon over a love story, cry over family struggles, and side eye behaviors of a 23 year old.
