This was a very Gen Z experience and I enjoyed the ride. I enjoyed watching the main character navigate her new job and the new experiences, bad and good, in this cut throat world of fashion media. It was interesting seeing the masks that everyone wore start to chip and fall away  to show that we are all not so different after all.

A journey of self discovery where the characters must find their place in the world  independent of outside pressures and expectations. It was fun to revisit these characters.

This was a struggle.

This is my first Elizabeth Stout book and I did not realize that it connected to her other stories. You can read it independently without feeling lost. The author does a wonderful job of bringing you in with clear, simple prose that flow smoothly across the page. 
This is very much a pandemic story that captured the unknowns we all experienced in 2020. 
I appreciated that the author did not shy away from historical events, but it hit really close to home. 
It might have been too soon for me to read this.

An interesting short story about how the male view on the perceived purity of women is toxic AF.
