“So I decide. Standing in this dank alleyway I decide I'll settle for a sliver of the love I want, in the hope that one day soon, there will be space for it to become more.”
I enjoyed this book a lot, while simultaneously wanting to shake some sense into this woman for the whole book. This novel provides a look at how disheartening and soul-crushing entering into the workforce can be, while being unable to escape the necessity of it. However, the main experience this novel explores is falling in love with a married man and what being the mistress feels like. It was difficult to read sometimes because we are in her head, which meant we were in delulu town for a while. The writing was fantastic (I loved the unexpected breaking of the 4th wall). It was funny, heartwarming, irreverent, and tense. I will definitely be getting a physical copy of this book!
I thank NetGalley and the publishers for the ARC of this book. I actually got it after the book has been released, so go get a copy if this sounds like it would be a good read for you.
