A bored twenty-three-year-old woman suddenly leaves her dull suburban job for L.A., becomes Internet-famous, and falls in love--Zelda to a semi-famous Scott. One day, I was not famous, the next day, I was almost famous and the temptation to go wide with that and reject my past was too great. When I was legit famous, it was hard to tell when the change had occurred... If I had been born famous, the moment I would have started engaging in social media, I would have seen this fame, not the rise of it. But first I saw the low numbers, and later, the high ones.--from Surveys Wryly mirroring the classic, female coming-of-age narrative, Natasha Stagg's debut traces a few months in the life of Colleen, a twenty-three-year-old woman with almost no attachments or aspirations for her life. Working at an unsatisfying mall job in Tucson, Colleen sleepwalks through depressing office politics and tiresome one-night stands in a desultory way, becoming fully alive only at night when she's online. Colleen attains ambiguous Internet stardom when she's discovered by Jim, a semi-famous icon of masculinity and reclusiveness. When Colleen quits her job and moves to meet Jim in Los Angeles, she immediately falls in love and begins a new life of whirlwind parties and sponsored events. The pair's relationship, launched online, makes them the Scott and Zelda of their generation, and they tour the country, cashing in on the buzz surrounding their romance. But as their fame expands, Colleen's jealousy grows obsessive.… (mais)

on page like 120 and idk if i'm going to finish this fucking shit heap even though it's like "goosebumps"-tier difficult

first section is basically fake raymond carver which is seemingly the only effective style these post-tao lin disaffected women can write in -- thank you so, so, so much, undergraduate writing workshops for making this happen

the second part is just a dirge, a death march -- i'm sorry but "muh superficiality" is a massively banal and unidimensional critique of online culture and celebrity culture -- it the undergraduate writing workshop teacher in question recommended this budding young star "less than zero" or fuckin "rules of attraction" but TRAGICALLY was not there to guide the critical engagement with the text

if you're going to read one of these chic nihilist post-Brat Pack types just read the fuckin moshfegh short story collection and put the rest in the trash ( )
