Assault scenes, skip if you aren't in the right headspace or peak for spoilers to know when to skip. Loved the book but its a lot to take in and it doesn't slow down.

I struggled though this book. I think mostly because of the narration with bad Boston accents and no distinctions between POV which was giving me whiplash. The premise is interesting but the characters were flat. I enjoyed the sarcastic dialogue but that was about it.
