Okay, despite Plath's reputation as the martyr of white feminism, I gotta say that she does one of the most remarkable jobs of narrating the inner dialogue of a severely mentally ill person that I've ever read. It's honestly getting a bit personal at this point. (To think that I was supposed to be admitted to the mental hospital where she stayed but that it was too full during my intake. *Scoff*)

The plot is pretty good so far, but I can definitely see how it became the poster novel for the “I’m not like other girls!” mentality. I’m sure the prose was refreshing & original at the time, but now it just reads laughably generic due to the uninspired tripe who wear it as a badge these days.
