Thank you NetGalley and to the publisher for the advanced copy! At first, when I started reading, this was a five-star read for me. As someone who does not want children, I absolutely loved the main character. It’s so rare to read a book where the main character doesn’t want children (and I loved how she didn’t have a change of heart by the end!). I loved how she was such a strong character and didn’t care what anyone thought and was just trying to survive her thirties and figure out the messiness of life. But the second half disappointed me. I really wish it went into a different direction (I don’t want to give it away). But overall, the writing was fantastic and really reminded me of Ottessa Moshfegh. I recommend this book to fans of Ottessa Moshfegh and Melissa Broder or Megan Nolan.
