Diary of a Void
by
by
Diary of a Void is a novella about a woman who fakes a pregnancy in order to get better treatment at work, but ends up being caught up in the web of her lies.
The book is read as a diary, as our hero recounts week by week her experience as a pregnant working woman. However, the writing style and the narration were boring, and felt like it was jumping from one event to the other.
Also, things got confusing towards the ending, especially after her visit to the doctor. And that twist wasn't even explained in the end.

I feel the same way about the ending. I thought I missed something because I was speed reading, but no, the doctor's visit is just absurd

For real! I just finished it and I'm so confused about the ending... When she said she'd go to the doctor I was thinking "well okay now she'll get caught because you can't fake that shit" then she does have something in her belly so I thought oh well then maybe it's a tumor since she suffers from such bad pain at the end but no then we skip 12 months ahead and I'm left even more confused.. how has the other mom's from aerobics not wanted to meet her kid or felt weird about not seeing her anymore since she doesn't mention anything about them.
