My Year of Rest and Relaxation

So,how exactly, did the author wean herself off her diet of drugs? And what were the repercussions for her health? The conclusion seemed rushed, almost an afterthought. I tired of her telling the reader how pretty she is.

I did not enjoy this book and only managed to finish it because it was short, and I was waiting to see if there was a point or climax - which never came. The depression that the main character is dealing with is conveyed in the writing style, but the main character wasn't someone you come to care about. I don't enjoy books where the protagonist is a narcissist. I felt bad for and cared more about her friend, Reva. The only good thing about the book was the narrator, Julia Whelan does a good job bringing the characters to life.
