as a fellow depressed and sleepy girl i really felt the main character. i love to sleep, i can take up to like 3 naps a day. some days i like to see has a fellow depressed and sleepy girl i really felt the main character. i love to sleep, i can take up to like 3 naps a day. some days i like to see how many naps i can take. i know the main character is seen as “unlikeable” but tbh as someone who is depressed, seeing people happy or just people in general is annoying this book is really just myonnafication of it all.
now obviously i can’t relate to being rich and her white privilege so sometimes reading this it did cause me to roll my eyes. i could also argue that the point of that was to show that money doesn’t equal happiness blah blah. i also just read it as a reason to make the story flow without the readers having to ask “doesn’t she have a job? how does she pay for things” and to make her more unlikable.

I enjoyed the fact that the deeper they went into the house the more that they feel in love. it’s very clear they were delusional but it worked for them. whenever they thought about the house they thought about each other as well. the book is weird, yes but it honestly really worked for me. ...more
