Cassandra’s life has completely fallen apart, so when she discovers that she can Ctrl-Alt-Delete her life during a panic attack she is elated that she can fix everything!
Yet she soon finds after some awkward moments involving dogs, waitresses and a few uncontrolled emotional outbursts she’s having to use her new life hack a little too much and that in itself is getting tiring and confusing.
I found this book to be a wonderful look at changes and self awareness. Including how each little action butterfly effects into another. I did find it slightly too long and thought it could have wrapped up sooner or had some more editing. But overall an enjoyable and thought provoking book. Warning if you’ve recently been left in a relationship it can be triggering.
