This was surprisingly fascinating for a book with such a harsh, flawed main character who knows herself. It's dark and witty, and the Arcadia Project's reason for seeking out the mentally ill to recruit is super troubling, but I'll likely read the next book.
I hadn't dealt with anyone with BPD in rl until recently so the running internal explanations of how she reacts to something, and trying to remember and apply therapy, was pretty interesting. (Would have been nice if the rl acquaintances had tried even half as hard.) Millie isn't her illness, she's human, and the book makes that clear - which is tough to do well.
