This book was delightfully depressing and disgusting in a mundane, everyday-life kind of way. My favorite part about this book was its unreliable narrator and multiple perspectives. Throughout the whole book I never really knew if Millie was how she described herself to be or if she was how the other characters saw her to be. I liked being inside Millie’s head and, at the same time, viewing her externally while also learning about other characters, like her spiteful boss, Karen. It was a good way to structure the story. 

Another detail about this book I liked was the simultaneous honesty and delusion with which Millie spoke about and viewed herself. Yes, most of the time, Millie was delusional about her life and her future. But when she wasn’t participating in self-deception, she was very honest with herself. More importantly, Mille tried. She tried so hard all throughout the book. I felt bad for her. I just wanted the world to work out for her and it simply didn’t. 

I truly didn’t have any dislikes for this book. It was, to me, perfect in its character-driven, plotless narrative.
