Straight up weird, but I was intrigued enough to finish. The story frustrated me to a certain degree and I felt dissatisfied with the ending. I wanted mystery and magic and felt all the buildup was deflated with such a mundane ending.

Bien que la fin soit un peu trop prévisible à mon goût, j'ai apprécié le mystère, le style d'écriture, les réflexions sur la littérature et la nature humaine. L'auteur n'explique pas tous les phénomènes étranges du récit, chose que j'apprécie particulièrement.
L'extrait choisi pour le quatrième de couverture n'est pas vraiment représentatif du livre, la description sur le site de l'éditeur est beaucoup plus pertinent.

Still digesting. I'm just not sure what to think about this one, but I do look forward to discussing it with my book club!

ghiblireads's review against another edition
When the first page of a book talks about the colour of the main characters nipples and uses the phrase “defective ovaries” multiple times, I know the book will not be for me. The writing was very odd - sentences felt abrupt and it just didn’t flow. Maybe I will try it again in the future..

Some interesting topics were mentioned, but I was hoping for something else. I would love to know so many more things.

Den är för märklig och oengagerande för att jag ska orka läsa vidare.
