Absolutely loved this - so sad but funny, and relatable and raw. Gilda's interior life was so well-fleshed out and felt like it came directly from reality. The way you would read her words, but clearly see the dark/spiraling reality just behind them? Chef's kiss. I liked how it didn't shy away from how fucking weird everything she was doing was, but still made its way to a place of beauty and peace. Just a perfect read for me.
