Pure Colour by Sheila Heti
3.0
funny reflective tense medium-paced

Strong character development: Complicated
Loveable characters: No
Diverse cast of characters: N/A
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

Either the most pretentious book I’ve ever read, the most sardonic, or the most nonsensical. I’m inclined to believe the second one - there’s some serious excoriation of the manic dream girl ideal and the propensity of people to believe their life problems are solved one idea after another. But I also echo all other criticisms of tone and word choice. I wish there were more colors.
