“Invested in her own outsiderness”
Where to even begin? This book was a beautiful, trippy discussion on reality and fiction, one that I did not expect to make me cry.
Part 3 was so much more than what I hoped it would be and it completely broke me.
I think this would have been so good for my younger self to have been able to read; the escapism in fiction and allowing yourself to stand out/not feeling forced to fit in are both topics that she really needed to hear.
If I say too much I fear I’ll give everything away and not stop talking, but to those wondering what it’s about, the best way to describe it is as a ‘drug-filled The Craft getting lost down the rabbit hole with Alice’.
