This book was a bit 50/50 for me. I felt like it started off realy strong. The writing style is beautiful and perfectly captures what it feels like to be that generation during economic and political chaos. It felt so relatable in terms of the struggle of affording housing, and the struggle to get a job after university in the current economic climate. However, by the end of the book i felt it drop off a little. The blurb asks us when it is right to give up, and accept that we cannot afford to sustain ourselves and be independant, but it left open options for the main character. Yet i found her ending pradictable and boring, and felt that it could have been much more interestingly ended.
The main character looks at the world through a very dull lense, and the writing really reflects that. She seems to go along with everything, making no connections and ties to anything. Her life seems in the end, pointless and dull. And for the first part that was enjoyable to read, but it sort of doesnt get better or worse, just boring.
