My Year of Rest and Relaxation

“All my homegirls lived this shit.”

“I know this book gets mixed reviews but I personally LOVED it. Could not put it down. Prompted me to consider why I make the choices I make everyday, and how participating in daily life at a certain point becomes a choice.”

“Probably my favorite book of all time. Perfect. Perfect. Perfect.”

“3.5/5 stars. Definitely targeted more for the melancholic, self destructive mid to late twenties female. Reminds me of my obsession with Go Ask Alice and Burn Diaries. Set in early 2000s New York. A lot of the cultural references you had to be there. Easy read.”

“Why address your problems and process trauma when you can just sleep?!”

“A dark and biting romp through a mental landscape that is both foreign and all too familiar. Moshfegh is superb at bubbling the worst of humanity to the surface while giving an uplifting little wink.”

“Our Persian Jewish queeeen”

“about 40 pages left and i am immediately giving this book to my friend to read it after i finish”

“Who doesn't want to sleep through the Trump years? Brilliant.”

“at the height of my abuse of sleeping medications and weeks of no sleep, every word she wrote was a deliciously heavy void and a fuckboi of greedy perversion and wanton shame”

“glad to see this freaky diva having her moment right now. Anything Otessa does, I'm a fan of.”

“hated that book sm couldn't finish it”
