I found this far to relatable and I am offended.
Honestly this could have been a 5 star read the only thing that dropped it half a star for me was a slow start and some of the more minor characters were easy to mix up.
This was such a creative and relatable story about depression, anxiety and the bad decisions and judgements you make because of it. And the use of social media and the endless doomscrolling as a contributing factor to millennial melancholy was perfectly illustrated without being spelled out.
If you are struggling through the first few chapters I promise it pays off.
