I don’t know why but this book scared me😭 It’s been 15 minutes since I finished it and I still feel a deep sense of restlessness and anxiety. I thought it was brilliantly written and brought up a lot of questions for me about the way I live life and what we are even doing every day.
Not the full five stars because some phrases were a little repetitive (maybe that was a stylistic choice because their life was repetitive but still).
