Ripe by Sarah Rose Etter
4.0
dark tense medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix

Two people I think would enjoy this book in my life are 

1. A recruiter 
2. A pro choice friend living in SF 


I would read more by this author. I liked the pacing and the plot. The atmosphere did a good job of feeling suffocating and artificial. Her friendships felt possibly rooted in reality for someone in that lifestyle. For someone working in tech, this felt omniscient at times, especially when Cassie can't find a moment's peace in the office, even in the bathroom.  And hey, we have the same name, this Cassie in tech feels that Cassie's pain.
