![]() ![]() The only reason why I didn't mind as much was because Eileen was such a fun narrator and Otessa really does know how to write. ![]() For a book that sets us up at the beginning as some big event changing her life I kind of expected a bit more than what I got. ![]() The reason why I'm not sure if I wanna give this book 5 stars was we got 90% of inner ramblings of Eileen and 10% of plot in literally only the last chaper. After I finished I don't think I ever knew anyone as intimate as I did Eileen. I mean we had a nice whole page of her bowel movements for one and some uncomfortable sex fantasies between coworkers. We got every glimpse of her mind and some of it was so disgusting I couldn't believe I was actually reading it. Ottessa has a way of dark dry humor that makes this book fun to read but make no mistake it was also very disturbing at times too. I wanted to grab her through the book and help her but also throttle her too. Eileen is a mess but the feelings she had of self loathing and need for approval was relatable to me at times maybe not quite as exaggerated but still relatable as a reader. Maybe im a bit of a sicko for relating to the character at some points and loving her considering a lot of the lower star reviews on goodreads saying otherwise and Im not even sure Ottessa wanted you to like her either. ![]()
