This was definitely a weird one and I can see why people wouldn't like it much. I personally liked it due to how introspective it was, especially in talking about loneliness and I also just really love Ottessa Moshfegh's writing overall, so it's a good one for me :)

It was good, slow for the first 120 pages but it seems that's the point, the slow burn. You never really know where it's going, something pleasing in that yet extremely frustrating. Classic Moshfegh.
