And the Heart Says Whatever, by Emily Gould

4.0

Will I always be a sucker for essay collections about being a young woman in New York? I don't know why, but this kind of book has always fascinated me, way before I lived here myself. Maybe it's the dreamy way an essay can capture how being a person living in the city is somehow minuscule and unimportant, and also the most significant thing you can do. I'll always enjoy a collection like this if the author does a good job of telling stories about their life, making me care about their interactions, and invested in their relationships and working habits, which Emily Gould definitely does.
