This was delightful. I feel seen and understood, and though the book is heavy in its constant reflections on mortality and loss, there's something almost hopeful in the way Gilda navigates the world.

Probably one of the most relatable books I've read
(maybe don't read it if you're feeling particularly anxious or depressed)

Kind of a romp, mostly twee. I appreciated the way Austin wrote the repeating/intrusive thoughts that come with anxiety. Would be perfect to read in a dentist’s office waiting room or on an airplane. Anywhere you have time to kill but don’t want to think too hard.

existential crisis in a book, but in the best way possible. it was a chaotic ride but captures just how complicated, hypocritical and insignificant humans are. also can't deny I really enjoyed being inside mc's head... bc same 😅
