If You Liked: Books with Consciousness

Don’t take the title too seriously. The “Shame” here is the narrator’s general, omnipresent shame at how her life has turned out: traditionally gender-roled marriage, kids that take all she’s got, farm that she can’t see is itself enviable to others… so, she’s looking for something, anything to get herself out of her own head and she finds it in an internet influencer whose Brooklyn life seems infinitely better than hers. BUT—this is a literary, stream of consciousness, amazingly voices version of that story. I think you’ll love it.
