It's just been a really rough week. A rough 5 years, to be honest 🙁 I'm starting to think that maybe I'll be alone and depressed for the rest of my life. Even on my better days, when I can muster enough optimism to think that maybe I'll make one or two friends/friendly acquaintances someday, I think that I'll always struggle at least a little in social situations.
Anyway. I'm fine with both more comforting reads and depressing books with lonely characters. For examples of books on the more hopeful side, I loved half a soul and all systems red. And circe made me feel even lonlier for some reason, but I guess sometimes that's just what you're in the mood for lol.

If you haven’t read Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine, I’d highly recommend it! It’s equal parts touching and funny, and it centers on a lonely woman building connections with unlikely friends.
