Basically 2.5 stars, bad treatment of the subject matter, a pointless plot, and rape as character development. At least a gay dude boxed well?

1.0

Bis zur Hälfte des Buches dachte ich, dass nur die Charaktere flach und der Schreibstil durch generische einfallslosigkeit gekennzeichnet sind, aber ab der Mitte ergibt einfach die Handlung auch keinen wirklichen Sinn mehr. Das grundsätzliche Setting und die Grundidee sind nicht schlecht, aber die Umsetzung ist wirklich generisch, wie aus einem Supermarkt-Roman von der Stange. Nur Klichees und unnachvollziehbare Handlungssprüngle. Ich verstehe nicht, wie das so gut bewertet sein kann.
