 THE DARKLY HILARIOUS AND BRILLIANTLY WISE NOVEL FROM THE AUTHOR OF SAD JANET

****

All her life, Susan's loved ones have been hiding a terrible secret from her: If she thinks too hard, her head will explode.

Until now, Susan has lived happily in a bubble of TV and takeaways, social media and small talk; anything to distract her from the spiralling thoughts that so often haunt the rest of us - thoughts that would be deadly for her.

But when reality creeps in and Susan's perfectly curated world starts to crumble, it begs the question: can we distract ourselves from the real world forever... And should we?

****

good initial premise. but surprise is revealed too early and the rest of the book is soooooo dull. it's like 'i opened the door then I closed the door then I went to the shop and watched tv" throughout the entire book. shame.

sorry but it's very boring
