Book Review: My Year of Rest and Relaxation by Ottessa Moshfegh
Set at the backdrop of the turn of the century, “My Year of Rest and Relaxation” follows a privileged narrator (thin, pretty, white, rich, you get the gist) who hibernates in a drug-induced state for a year in her paid-for Upper East Side apartment. On the surface, she has everything any girl wants. But through the cracks, we meet a character who’s deeply flawed and terribly, terribly alone.

Book Review: Find Me by André Aciman
“Find Me” is the second book of the “Call Me By Your Name” duology by André Aciman. I highly recommend reading the first book before picking up its sequel.
