I'm sorry but I could not stand the main characters. Especially in the first part during secondary school, that was the hardest to get through. They are supposedly 'normal people' , yet they are so unhinged and for me their interactions were so hard to follow. The lack of punctuation wasn't the problem, it was the actual content of the interactions that just to me didn't make sense at times. I feel like I'm missing something?
I think I'm still glad I read it, but it was very much a let down and was really not for me. Those main characters being the way they are in what is basically a character study of a book was just not it.
