This was an almost dnf for me, saved only by my own curiosity of knowing where this character would end up and if it would follow the same author’s demise.

In terms of the writing, I thought that the story unfolded rather quickly at times. Certain events (the diamond guy at the party) never get mentioned again. And it wasn’t as introspective of a piece as I thought. Rather, it dealt with the perception of mental health, both as it concerns the main character and people in her life.

If you read this from a Marxist lens, you'll see it full of classism and very quickly realize that your main character is privileged.
It also has your run of the mill sexism and homophobia.
All of the above made the reading experience so utterly unejoyable and triggering.
