Just finished "My Year of Rest and Relaxation" based on a recommendation from a friend and it's really funny. Anything that ends in a main character suiciding from an on-fire WTC during 9/11 has my exact morbid and death-obsessed tone
Tiktoker r-slurs treat it like it's a feminist allegory or something when it's actually hugely averse as a story to the lionising of the female protagonist; she is unrelentingly manipulative and the writer is not interested in saying anything about gender (finally)

This is only way midwits can engage with media now. Everything must be forced into allegorical narratives, because the point of telling stories is all just restating existing political and historical narratives. Easy to consume little allegories that take you from point A to point B without ever needing to deeply engage with the work. Frick the idea of writing to convey complex concepts and feelings that resonate with the reader on a personal level, no it's all just a long winded way to regurgitate Wikipedia article summaries.
