Yah happy to eat my humble pie as ever. This got way better around midway through, with the Infermiterol but especially around a funeral. Like, poignantly good. Horribly resonant. I enjoy reading about the narrator’s relationships with other humans but find her self-isolation a deeply unpleasant read and her misanthropy more so. She is mildly more sympathetic now tho, which helps.

Where to even start. The protagonist and everyone around her (except maybe her friend Reva) is so deeply unpleasant I hope the NYC in 2000 setting hurries up and delivers relief by air.
Very sobering and arresting glimpses into the protagonist’s childhood, her inner world, the men around her, are keeping me going or t least in the territory of “Get this over with ASAP” as opposed to tapping out entirely.
