I do not know what to say or think. The book contains a lot of interesting, sometimes even funny observatorions but I feel the story will be out dated in a few years because some of the chromically online parts felt like that already. The main character is kinda annoying and I feel like I am supposed to feel connected to her but I don't want to and I don't feel the connection. Storytelling and language is still five stars.
I did not know the book (or the second half of it) is autofictional. I realized that just before the ending. The second half of the book is heartwarming and heartbreaking. Two halves are total opposites and it bothered me. Some connection would have been nice.
After all, I still kind of recommend the book.
