challenging dark funny medium-paced

3.5

First 2/3 fantastic, funny, dark, clever… then it got TOO clever, and then a massive thing was revealed and the book ended 🙂 It just ended. In this very left field way.

Feel quite conflicted tbh, in part not a huge fan of the main character especially at the start (very ottessa moshfegh/eliza clark coded im not a bitch i just tell it like it is) and some of the speeches felt way too long and i didn’t care but then i really liked some of the writing and while the ending wasnt quite a 5* conclusion it was pretty good and tied up pretty well

"networking" a word Americans used to describe socializing with colleagues, as though they needed a concept to justify kindness and camaraderie at work.

Meh.
I went into this thinking the author had a lot to say in this satire but whenever she started approaching some concepts and criticisms, it remained on a surface level.
