Everyone in This Room Will Someday be Dead

Review of copy received from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

I liked this book, and I did like the main character Gilda. I hadn't thought that the book would be quite so much of a downer - perhaps calling it a hilarious book is a bit misleading. There's certainly amusing parts, but reading it when you're feeling down isn't perhaps the best idea.

Still glad I read it!

This felt like what a downwards spiral feels like. Gilda is a lesbian who while looking for help ends up at a catholic church and doesn't say no when they mistake her as the new hire.
Gilda is often ruminating about death and that life feels like it could be cut short at any moment. There were parts that felt like disassociating. Just simply existing but I'm a total daze.
