One of my longest reads, not because the author is a bad writer but because it was too raw and real. It’s messy and ugly and too truthful! It took me back to a place where I was a girl addicted to love acting out of desperation

no shade like it was good especially the first 100 pages had me hooked. if i read this when i was in my bag like junior year of high school it would have hit but i dont think im in that stage of my life. also im decentering men.

SHORT CHAPTERS + 25 year old girl’s self-destructive internal monologue!!!!! 5/5!!!! I don’t want to say no plot… but… mild plot. Just vibes... unhinged vibes. I read this super fast because I loved the way it was written. The most ferocious and belittling feeling is being a woman desperate for someone’s time and love — someone who doesn’t want anything to do with you. This book was unsettling because of how real and raw and intensely relatable it was. This brought me back to a pre-therapy time of extreme loneliness and desperation. I loved this book.

"What would you choose? Either you can be famous for being a shrill prop in a great man’s work, a victim sacrificed to the gods of art, or you can nod along and applaud. You can have a seat at the big boy’s table for being such a good sport. So, go ahead: ha ha ha."
