This feels perfect if you like literary fiction that is strange, delicate, and emotionally sharp without losing its warmth. Mona’s number-obsessed inner world is wonderfully peculiar, but what really stays with you is how gently the novel explores fear, control, and the mess of wanting connection. It has that dreamy Aimee Bender quality where everything feels slightly enchanted and deeply human at once.
