Confessions of a Sociopathic Social Climber: The Katya Livingston Chronicles by Adèle Lang

2.0

Katya Livingston is not meant to be a person you fall in love with. On the contrary, she is person you find yourself quickly falling in hate with. Not even her friends are relatable, as most of them are similar (though less self-confident) versions of Katya herself. Although there were some moments where I found myself chuckling to myself, the book is a bit hard to read as Katya and her co-stars are next to impossible to relate to. Some of her complaints are valid (such as when her friend, Angel, changes her three-month-old daughter's diaper on the table in a Pizza Hut), but many are ridiculous, and watching Katya come up with more and more excuses to explain away her pathetic life just didn't do it for me. I understand that that was the point of the book, but it wasn't my thing.
