Dit was echt zo onnoemelijk saai en de personages waren vreselijk nietszeggend.

Exciting times they were not. I have no many issues with this book, I'm not even going to allow myself to get angry again as I review it.

If you are thinking of picking it up because you like [a:Sally Rooney|15860970|Sally Rooney|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1534007127p2/15860970.jpg]: Avoid it.

If you are triggered by people with colonialist mindsets: Avoid it. Especially if you cannot fathom why someone from a former colony and who considers herself communist can be such a capitalistic, colonialist, self-centered... person. Ugh! Such a whiny, frustrating character.
