Hmm this is an example of a literary fiction novel where the purpose was lost on me. I’m assuming the author was trying to be satirical and make a point about gender and power dynamics, but instead of being clever or articulate, it came off digressive and incoherent. It was hard to follow what she was trying to say, or even if she was trying to say anything at all. Instead of any insightful observations or thought-provoking dialogue, there was just a ton of ramblings of a rich, young, skinny white girl.

I didn’t hate it because I can tell that the author is a talented writer. But it also reads as something that the author tried really hard to make provocative and controversial just for the sake of being ~groundbreaking~
