Thought I'd enjoy it more than I actually did.
It was a challenging read, despite me relating to many aspects of the protagonist's whole deal (Your early 20s are all about maladaptive daydreaming, seeing what cocktail of psychiatric meds best work for you and engaging in a Lot of depression naps, right?)
The last act did keep me engaged though, and I know that last line will haunt me.
