I received an eARC of this book from NetGalley and the publisher in exchange for an honest review.

This is a short book that I enjoyed, but I had to get used to the pacing. I was drawn to the biting, sarcastic, dry satirical take on the gig economy, urban life, and white allyship that Priya Guns employs in this book--I can see the connection to Taxi Driver, though this protagonist is slightly less unhinged, more sincere, and participates in a romance that didn't lend as much to the story as I thought it would. (Also, I started skimming the parts when Damani talked about her body and her YouTube therapist.) The buildup of social commentary leads to an explosive climax, though, and the ending is somehow both cynical and hopeful at the same time.
