• Brilliant writing, very creative and immersive. 
• Important topics were explored well. 
• Plot was almost non-existent. It was just New York, alcohol, drugs, infidelity and vibes. 
• More of a character case study kind of book.

This really challenged me emotionally and I don’t even have related experience to what the characters were going through other than mental health struggles, yet I still felt so connected and entwined with them and all of their flaws. They are not easy characters to love, and that was the point, I believe. The two characters I found I liked the most only had 1 chapter and 2 chapters accordingly. Very powerful writing.
