Just a brief review on the base text of the book (notes on annotations to come)

I'm not usually a fan of this style of writing, and I felt that i didn't really get into the story until the interlude chapter (over halfway through). I chose to listen to the audiobook version of the base text so as not to be distracted by the annotations, which I am extremely drawn to. SOT = 3.5/5

Update: i adored reading Jennifer and Eric in the margins. So much of Jennifer not Knowing what she wants so do and not wanting to try resonated deeply with me, but Eric's encouragement throughout was so lovely for me to read. Obviously the Annotations aren't linear and so it can be confusing in places but just go with the flow and you'll figure it out! Annotations 4.5/5

Overall rating= 4/5. (:

A fantastic read, with more than one story line to keep track of. While difficult to follow at times and occasionally confusing the way this book was written makes you feel like you are intruding on a very private and intimate conversation. You are given a secret look into the lives of Eric and Jen while simultaneously leaving you wanting for more. Absolutely loved it!

If you can give yourself time to get through it, it is quite a journey. My recommendation is to read it at least twice once for the original story and again for the additional characters-their notes and ad ins. The relationship that develops is striking and engaging! Would read again!
