So.Much.Drama.
Srsly.
Anyway, it was a nice fast-paced summer read, it made me miss and not miss the east coast snobbery/fast paced way of life. Each chapter
Is stressful, filled with adultery, park slope weed, star-fuking, air place fingering, shrimping, Grindr, adoption, addiction, gentrification, and self-involvement. But I like the tone of hope, you do care for some of these characters, and you get invested in things ending well for them. It was a bit of a chore to read sometimes, she's a much better screenwriter than novelist, but it was a thoughtful throwaway.
