Kit Bennett is twenty-nine, and her marriage has just ended after only a short time. She has a good job, a graduate degree that she is not finishing, and a flat in Toronto that she cannot afford on her own. Kit tries to adjust to being single: she goes on dates, sleeps with the wrong people, and moves in with friends, all while telling herself she is doing great. Monica Heisey, a comedy writer, fills the novel with quick, self-aware humor, and she gradually shows how Kit's coping strategies keep her from dealing with the real changes in her life.
It suits readers who enjoy funny, modern novels about messy twenties and thirties, and fans of Fleabag-style narration.
Inward-looking and clear-cut; an easy read.
Best for readers like The Curious Generalist. Which reader are you?
