"Masquerading as a normal person day after day is exhausting."
and
"I think, therefore I'm single" -Liz Winston
this was a fun read.
However, it was definitely more adult than I would like and it was so cleverly full of itself that I was almost fed up with it at the end. Also, it didn't have page numbers which, oddly, bugged me.
