Yes, but I have to say I absolutely hated this book! Not a single likable character, reeked of white privilege ( must be nice to have so much time on your hands to overthink and indulge in your every immature whim) and the fact that the author decided that her 5-year-old should referred to as “they” was annoying as hell ( and no I’m not a MAGA for what that’s worth).

If you liked that book, check out The Brilliant life of Eudora Honeysett by Annie Lyons.

Iona Iverson’s Rules for Commuting, assuming you want out of this rut.

The Vaster Wilds if you don’t.

I think I am the only person who loved the first part of the book, then was like, Really? at the end. But I did love the beginning.

I feel like The Paper Palace was like this.
