Let's see. An unknown woman who was never loved by her parents, had a horrible childhood, had a toxic relationship. Even if she is extremely privileged, beautiful and rich, none of those makes her alive or happy. After her parents death, she becomes severely depressed and decides to numb herself with medications for a year because she believes if she sleeps enough, she will wake up as a whole new person whose past doesn't matter anymore. I don't think most people who read the book like or fully understand the character. Liking her is not the point. The point is understanding her misery. Yes, she messes up, she makes mistakes, she acts unreasonable, she doesn't give a fuck about the world around her. She struggles a lot, but she is also in search of freedom and happiness and her true self. It was a real book about depression and despair with her complicated feelings and thoughts, not some fairytale nonsense. Good book.
