This book was boring. That is the best way I can describe it. I enjoy the themes. That’s why I bought it. However, reading through it was somewhat bothersome. It felt like nothing happened, honestly.

The book is too depressing and the protagonist is too negative of a person. At least for my taste.
Still it's interesting being in his mind. It's just like how one can't look away from a train wreck.
I know the story supposed to be is semi-autobiographical, and that only makes it even more interesting.
