This was good! It reads like a long internal monologue and the plot never resolves but that’s kinda the point? I don’t mean that in a bad way. It’s like a memoir, I guess but on fictional characters. The cape cod trip was what initially drew me in because I can deff relate to those parallels. The content is a bit heavy at times so please check the content warnings if you’re looking to avoid certain topics like pregnancy, pregnancy loss, etc. There were a few moments that made me laugh out loud and reminded me of the marvelous Mrs maisel traveling with her parents to camp in New York. A good quick read!
