Really heartwarming and funny and sadly relatable. Well written and compelling story and narrator. Maybe it wrapped up a bit too quickly at the end?

As someone with OCD, how she writes this experience is refreshing and I feel understood by this novel.
"'I can't muster the energy required to be a positive part of anyone's life. I can't even muster the energy to apologize for that."

4.0

Heartbreaking. Narrator is deeply, deeply anxious and perfectly captured. 

Also part-get-your-life together, part-murder-mystery. And life’s a struggle for everyone. Plenty of sympathetic characters from various walks of life. 

Quietly hopeful ending.
