Spent a lot of this book going “oh no you poor thing” at the main character. Emily Austin is so good at writing mental illness? You can FEEEEEEL the anxiety coming at you -- which is part of why it took me a little longer than usual for me to read this because I could only take on so much of that in one day.

But if you’re down to read about a undiagnosed neurodivergent lesbian who is REALLY into true crime and space and also has a phobia of bald men, you should ABSOLUTELY read this I loved it so much.
