I need to reflect on this more to give a proper review, but I really enjoyed it. This is my second Moshfegh novel and I'm once again struck by how she crafts these characters who you love and hate and root for and want to slap all at the same time. They're simultaneously realistic and ridiculous. I guess that speaks to the satirical nature of this story. Idk there was something profoundly relatable about the core of this story.

This book was horrible. The end epiphany that I expected didn't happen. The main character was still unlikeable. It was predictable and dumb.

did you know that pretty privileged people can be depressed too?
the ending felt unearned, superficial, cheap.
