I received an ARC of this book from NetGalley in exchange for my unbiased opinion. 
 Claire has recently quit her job, which was unfulfilling, to figure out her purpose in life and to decide what job she would like and that would give her life meaning. She lives with her boyfriend of seven years, a neurosurgeon in training, so she more or less has the financial freedom to do this. Rather than being a cohesive story, it is told in little blurbs. For instance, Claire might interrupt a story line about her family to tell a brief aside about something that she saw while she was riding the tube. 
 Telling the story through vignettes rather than a cohesive novel through me off at first, but after a while, I got so into the book that I hardly noticed it any more, and I liked the fact that they were so short that it was easy to find a stopping point when I needed to go back to real life. However, I really disliked the ending. You spend the whole book waiting for Claire to discover what she wants to do with her life, and it just never gets resolved. The book was moderately funny, but at times, I also wished I could just knock some sense into Claire.
