Everything You Ever Wanted

**SPOILER AHEAD** A book club pick that was undeniably strange. The writing was simple and easy to follow, but the story ultimately went nowhere—it just… ended. There was no real payoff, and the plot felt pointless. Ending with Iris waking from a coma or a psychotic break would have made far more sense. Instead, it felt like the author built an intriguing premise and then simply walked away from it. Book #70 in 2025 ⭐️

This is NOT science fiction. I repeat: This. is. NOT. Science Fiction. This book was horribly mis categorized as science fiction. It is not about new planetary discoveries, colonization of other planets, or space travel. Sure it mentions all of those things, but they are simply a background for this story of a woman struggling in her everyday world looking for an escape. Was it perfect? Absolutely not. I enjoyed this book because I can relate to the stupid decisions we make when we’re depressed and anxious. And the entire premise was just really thought provoking.
