I didn't find the main character, Rachel, believable. I haven't known anyone who has consistently flubbed social interactions so badly and not been aware of it to some degree - that's not really how it works. I get the idea the author wrote about an odd woman he vaguely knew, whose internal life he knew nothing about but imagined as mean-spiritedly as possible. Predicable ending.
