This was really, really good. Incredibly gripping, gritty, and captivating. I read it in about three days, which definitely helped get me out of a reading slump. Lots of great content about women, men, addiction, obsession, and more. This is a showstopping literary addition to the "unhinged millennial woman" genre, adding Nolan's name to the list of contemporary greats like Ottessa Moshfegh, Sally Rooney, and Melissa Broder.Publisher's description:
In the first scene of this provocative gut-punch of a novel, our unnamed narrator meets a magnetic writer named Ciaran and falls, against her better judgment, completely in his power. After a brief, all-consuming romance he abruptly rejects her, sending her into a tailspin of jealous obsession and longing. If he ever comes back to her, she resolves to hang onto him and his love at all costs, even if it destroys her.
