Nightbitch is beautifully written with an incredible premise and a lot of really important things to say about motherhood. However, it would have been better if it was shorter- especially in the third quarter of the book it felt as if the author was dragging things out solely for the sake of making the book longer. 

When I finished the book I sat there and stared at it in confusion for a solid 3 minutes. Maybe I just don’t get art, but choosing to conclude the book the way she did loses it half a star for me.
