Really Good, Actually: A Novel
Maggie is fine. She’s doing really good, actually. Sure, she’s broke, her graduate thesis on something obscure is going nowhere, and her marriage only lasted 608 days, but at the ripe old age of twenty-nine, Maggie is determined to embrace her new life as a Surprisingly Young Divorcée™.

Had to DNF this one. Itâs like one long internal dialogue that drones on and on and on and onnnnnnn. There is no real point or plot in sight. I struggled to get more than halfway through and STILL nothing of substance was happening. Iâm done wasting my time.
Thank you Harper Collins India from providing me a review copy of the book.
This book is actually, really good. As a debut novel by Monica Heisy ,this book is actually very very good. The narrative part and the humor is best. It's genre is humorous fiction, and this was my first book of this genre and I really liked it.
The story starts with the 29 year old narrator, Maggie whose marriage has ended just 608 days after it started. The book describes Maggie's life when her husband moved out and she wants to embrace her divorced status.
The book has really good humor which got me laughing at many times. The book kept me hooked with Maggie as she goes through the ups and down of her life.
The book is worth readings, you'll definitely love it! You can also read it when you wanna take a break from your usual genre. I highly recommend it to everyone.

This book was not what I was expecting. It was good. Knowing the writer wrote on Schitt's Creek I could definitely feel those vibes. The overexplaining got tedious but I also really related with the character in a lot of ways. I would recommend it only because it feels pretty universal for mental health struggles and feelings of "not normal "
This main character is kind of annoying.
I wouldn’t have put up with all her nonsense.
A couple parts were funny.
The cover is pretty.
I do enjoy the Canadian-ness of it tho.
