☼ 177/108

Although this book had many dog-ear moments and a VERYYY strong beginning, middle, and end, it just didn’t do for me what it did for others and that’s okay :)

Still a very good book that I recommend for sure!!! I would say the writing reminds me a bit of Ottessa Moshfegh meets Sally Rooney.
