...questo è un libro che parla ( o meglio: che vorrebbe parlare)di dipendenza: dipendenza emotiva, dipendenza dall'alcool, dal sesso e dalla tecnologia. Parla (o vorrebbe) delle menzogne che raccontiamo a noi stessi e agli altri pur di non deludere le loro aspettative, per trovare accettazione, per il bisogno di sentirci amati. E lo fa con i toni della satira e della commedia, in toni esasperati e grotteschi. Troppo. E qui ecco che un romanzo potenzialmente grandioso, grazie allo stile superbo e allo stesso tempo fluido della scrittrice, e incredibilmente attuale va semplicemente a farsi f....riggere.
Perché anziché approfondire tematiche sopra citate l'autrice insiste nell' esasperare l' elemento grottesco, con scene "cringe" del tutto gratuite, scivolando solo sulla superficie delle cose e rendendo alla fine sgradevole e del tutto dimenticabile un romanzo altrimenti godibile e brillante. Un'occasione mancata. Peccato. 1.5
