Jenny Offill is a talented writer but this book missed the mark for me. I generally like stream of consciousness narratives and don't mind having to fill in the blanks myself but I really could have used some backstory and more details to connect with the main character, Lizzie. Rather than sympathizing with her situation, her anxiety annoyed me and I wanted to yell at her to just get over it already and appreciate the good in her life. I can't recommend this book but I can still recommend this author.
