At the beginning I really loved the writing and tabbed a lot of quotes but after those 20-30 pages it lost me. I could not tell you what happened plot wise at all and i feel like the quality of the writing also didn't captivate me as much as at the beginning. 
Very sad. I would have dnf'd but it was a gift from a friend who loved it and i was so close to the end.
Very disappointed in this one. :((

Penso que acabei de ler um dos livros da minha vida. Tão atual que parece escrito ontem. E não sei, vai ser difícil escrever sobre isto, não é fácil de ler, no entanto é de leitura rápida, mas faz-nos pensar a cada sentença.
Não é para ler em qualquer momento, tem de se estar preparado para isso e creio que acertei no alvo desta vez. Também não é para toda a gente. Foi para mim agora. E foi inesperado, porque não estava mesmo à espera de ser abalroada desta forma.

Sobre esta edição: a capa é fantástica e tudo parece funcionar muito bem. Se bem me lembro só encontrei um erro no texto todo. Por fim, se puderem evitar ler o prefácio no início, façam-no. Tem spoilers e não vos vai deixar aproveitar algumas coisas.

Mas sim, é uma narrativa subtil, mas sublime. Tão bom. E agora vou fazer coisas e viver. E é isto.
