"The dog-whispering, post-Goth cousin to Phoebe Waller-Bridge's Fleabag": An irresistibly blackhearted comedy about doctors, dating, dogs, and depression
"'Depression comedy' is just the genre we all need right now, and Sad Janet is the unexpectedly comforting novel that perfectly fits the bill." -HelloGiggles
Janet works at a ramshackle dog shelter in the woods. She has a passive-aggressive boyfriend, a meddlesome family, and a clutch of eccentric coworkers. Most of all, she has her "sad"-a comfortable cloak of gloomy realism that brings her comfort when everyone around her has surrendered to the permanent promise of pharmaceutical bliss.
Janet wants no part of this, and her family has nearly given up on her. That is, until the fateful summer when word spreads of a new pill that offers even confirmed cynics a short-term taste of happiness…just long enough to make it through the holidays without sinking into depression. When her family stages an intervention, her boyfriend leaves her, and the prospect of making it through Christmas alone seems like too much, Janet decides to give in to the pressure. What follows is life-changing for all concerned-in ways no one quite expected.
Sharp-tongued, relentlessly witty, yet surprisingly warm, Sad Janet is the depression comedy you never knew you needed.
