Despite cringing throughout, it’s fascinating hearing the main character’s (Natalie) story of her upbringing and the circumstances that created this truly unlikeable person. I even have some empathy for her. How did that happen?

I’m barely into this book and I want to slap the main character. Eager to untangle her complicated sense of self and worldviews.

Oh Alice… I just want to give you a hug. If you understood what a hug was instead of the concept of a hug and the relationship to the APPALLING human desire for connection.

That being said, damn does RF Kuang write anxious characters well.
