Woah. Didn’t think I could dislike a character more! This story follows our grieving and depressed narrator as she embarks on a really unhealthy journey of sleeping for an entire year. The idea is that this rest will allow her to disappear completely and emerge as a new and improved person. Explores themes of death and addiction.
