Traumatic for me to read, but good, very good. I’d like to revisit it when I’ve got more distance… but, especially, ‘twenty hot tips for shopping success’ really hit close to home.

I love Casey Plett’s writing. It’s wry, funny, unflinching. It loses .25 of a star because I really struggle to read books with no quotation marks. It’s a stylistic choices that rarely seems to serve a purpose. But otherwise, amazing!

I think listening to the audiobook was the right choice for this book for me. The latter half was the strongest but overall, I enjoyed this read.

v much enjoyed these!! compelling nuanced characters and relationships. just spent so much time reading instead of writing the papers that i should be writing because i was too invested to put the book away.
