I really think reading this after the series ruined the book for me because I knew what was going to happen. But having said that the author really does make you somewhat hate Joe, whilst also agreeing with him about the people beck has around her and somewhat rooting for him.

Took a while for me to finish this book, about a week an a half. The writing was subpar, but in my honest opinion there was just too much filler. This caused me to put down the book quite a bit as it was just hard to get through.

I watched the series before reading this and I'm quite disappointed. Narratively it isn't (as) interesting or refined, in my opinion, and I found reading the extremely misogynistic stream of consciousness of the main character not appealing in the slightest. I don't like how the characters or their storylines are written, especially when it comes to the women, and I get why the screenwriters felt like they needed to add and change so much for the adaptation. Many clever turns, references, tensions, nuances in the series... turn out to not exist in the original material.

This was a good time. Honestly like I kept feeling kind of bad for Joe and then I had to be like no he’s crazy. Also honestly beck was annoying and so was like everyone, but that’s like the point. I’m glad I can finally watch the show now. I’m also nervous about the Squeal because a lot of people hated it. Oh this is also really graphic in the sexual aspect so just be warned. I was listening to this without headphones and I’m like good loud I hope no one walks in because it’s literally basically smut.
