The Charm Offensive by Alison Cochrun

1.0

Maya said this was "too PC" and coming from a Wes student OHHHHH BOY that's quite the indictment, but it's also such just the tip of the iceberg. Have you ever wanted to read characters who rail against the stereotyping of mental illness à la early 2010s woke tumblr post, while also being caricatures of those mental illnesses with no other personality? Are you excited by the possibility of a plot so contrived that a twitter-thread fanfic would cringe away from it? Do you enjoy introducing questions with very obvious answers (could the reality show actually be fake??) which are categorically denied for no reason, and never questioned again? This might be the book for you!
