The Memo is a cautionary tale combo of the grass is always greener and be careful what you wish for. We follow Jenny as she receives a life changing memo after she goes back for her college reunion. The memo is supposed to help Jenny usher in a new life by righting all of her past mistakes and poor decisions, getting her back on the #girlboss track she was destined to be on. 

Maybe because I’ve already had these sorts of daydreams and have been working on feeling fulfilled with where I am and not what could have been, the book just didn’t hit for me. The entire time I found myself frustrated with Jenny for giving up on her friends and the objectively other good things in her life. I cringed as she followed the memo directives and further isolated herself from her loved ones that had stuck by her all this time. 

Thank you very much to NetGalley and Harper Perrenial for the advanced copy.
