"The Likeness" Tana French

"Our entire society's based on discontent: people wanting more and more and more, being constantly dissatisfied with their homes, their bodies, their decor, their clothes, everything.  Taking it for granted that that's the whole point of life, never to be satisfied.  If you're perfectly happy with what you've got- specially if what you've got isn't even all that spectacular- then you're dangerous.  You're breaking all the rules, you're undermining the sacred economy, you're challenging every assumption that society's build on."
