The beginning dragged with the UNlucky Penny's misfortunes playing out in such a way that they feel overwhelming, but this ended up being more fun than I thought it would be! There's some fantasy/magical realism elements near the end that are silly and made me and my D&D-loving self smile. It's an enjoyable way to spend an hour or two.
One tiny aspect that confused me: Penny's age. She refers to herself as a "teenager" once or twice, but she can drink, doesn't go to school, and has a full-time job? I'll settle for "new adult" and move on.
