The Organization is Here to Support You – Charlene Elsby

2 stars

The Organization is Here to Support You is a clever story about bureaucracy at it’s finest; which is to say, a corporate rat race ending in a nightmare.

I did think it was really interesting how Charlene captured what it’s like to work for big business and how you start to lose yourself in the chase for the betterment of the organization. Her society where corporate has found a way for people to be constantly at work but not always at work was written well, though it didn’t hit me nearly as hard as it could have since working from home has become somewhat of the norm the last several years.

Where I kind of fell off this book was Clarissa’s interactions with Mr. Dick Richards. The addition of an online sex tryst felt a bit random to me and took me out of the story a lot. Then everything really spiraled from there, and it was hard for me to stay invested in what was going on.

Maybe I just didn’t catch all of the nuances in the story that I was supposed to, but I was left with a lot of confusion and questions, especially after that ending.

This book just didn’t hit for me, though I can see where others would really enjoy it!
