Another beautifully introspective and tender book from Broder hidden beneath biting humour and mild absurdism. I adored this book, the writing was exceptional and has cemented my status as a Melissa Broder superfan.

Okay this book just felt chaotic and scattered. It had plenty of funny moments but I just feel like I missed something? A lot of things? Idk.
