It's about a young woman coming into adulthood with her whole childhood behind her and the cruel modern world ahead of her. Family drama, roommate drama, a mysterious lover, middle class angst, strange and surreal scenes(like her house literally slowly sinking into the earth), and amazing prose. Honorable mention to Woman, Eating by Claire Kohda, which is about a vampire who is trying to break into the art world.

I'm recommending this one specifically because it helped me really get back into reading after years of neglecting my literacy. Super fun vampire novel about growing up, womanhood, family, art, and being true to yourself despite the consequences.

Everybody meet Tomato! (government name: Chloe) She is a very very shy but sweet little lady who is one year old. I already feel like we're kindred spirits because we both take a while to warm to people. She is currently sitting comfortably with the dust bunnies under my bed.
