This book punched me in the face. Several times. In a good way! The very beginning and the ending were my favorite parts; they hit the hardest. I was freaking out during my classes as I read them, because they were so good.

this book was so easy to read, it felt as if the time wasn't going by and as if i wasn't even reading. the pace is nice to follow and it's like we are reading the main characters journal, so we are seeing the world through his eyes and seeing the world thru his eyes is honestly calming - except in the hard core scenes, then it gets sad to see.

this book is also beautifully written, even the smallest and simplest things are well written, and gain a special meaning.

I really enjoyed the premise of the book (focusing on the life of someone with alexithymia) and I thought the writing was quite good. 

my biggest issue was the plot, it seems to end really out of character and random - I do wonder if that's because oh who is narrating, it made it come off odd. 

there was also a lot of violence that I did not expect...
