I don't know why it took me until 2022 to find this book. It was written in 2015 but nonetheless a timely story. I finished this book at midnight, went to bed thinking about it and woke up to think about it some more. First, I loved Ani's inner monologue. Her acidic wit was spot on- especially the description of women in New York. So many truths, painful but perfect. Second, it turned out that I was reading a whole different book than I thought I was- and that was really interesting. Great story and it went deep. I felt empathy for Ani and I don't think there's a teenage girl alive, particularly those of us who are now grown, who can't relate to her life. It was that well done.
