Okay I took forever to review this but truly this is one of the most interesting books ive read. It's all about people processing trauma in their own weird and twisted ways which I can unfortunately relate to really really hard. The main character is incredibly relatable and just the perfect amount of unlikable, supporting her believability. The book also comes from a very modern lens I feel in our society that demands rights to literally everyone else's business and our inability to put down our camera-phones and leave people alone. Jake Paul in the suicide forest comes to mind. Since the TV show in the book is a real show I'd love to know more about the place the author was in when she wrote it and why she chose 'three's company' for the book. I also felt there was a very strong feminist theme and also the queer undertones and scenes were so well written. Another banger for the girls who have no sanity left!!
