Lola is in her late 30s and poised to marry her current boyfriend when she begins running into her exes in the streets of New York like she’s some sort of modern day Ebenezer Scrooge. Eventually she finds out her old boss, now the leader of a cult-like, New Agey startup is behind these encounters of exes past, which force her to confront her past relationships while contemplating her current one.
Funny and acerbic and very NYC, Cult Classic is easy, entertaining reading exploring Millennial relationships even if I didn’t fully connect with it in quite the way I’d hoped.
Thanks to Netgalley and Farrar, Strauss, and Giroux for the advanced reading copy.
