A Touch of Discomfort

I’d heard good things about Beth Morgan’s A Touch of Jen, so I placed a hold at the library.

The evening I picked it up was the first time I saw its cover.

The librarian was an older woman. She shot me a look.

“I heard it was good,” I said.

“What’s it about?”

I didn’t remember exactly. I thought for a second. I said it’s about the toxicity of social media culture.

“You know… more or less,” I said. “Broadly.”

“I hope you like it.”

I felt weird.
