Everyone in this book is bitter and miserable. The main character describes basically every woman she meets (including teenagers) as sluts, says that a woman who annoys her deserves to be physically abused, and then they laugh about it with her male friend. Overall, didn't really like anyone, and there were too many long flashbacks for me to really focus on the plot.
