Eileen by Ottessa Moshfegh
2.0
Eh...
Update: after letting this sit, I still don't have too many opinions. I'm by no means anti-slow-not-a-lot-happens books, but to me, this really felt like 200 pages of why Eileen's Dad sucks and 40 pages of 'wow this woman I just met is so cool.' Biggest problem probably being that I didn't care, especially as we know the ultimate outcome.
