2nd time reading: 
At first, I was gonna give it a lower rating, maybe a 3.5 ⭐️. But I had too much fun annotating and analyzing this book. Finally understand it’s meaning and the underlying themes now that I’m older was truly magical.

You know that game where somebody gives you a prompt and you have to rant about it as if you had years worth of bottled up anger on the subject? That's how this book was written. In the end they try to make it seem like MainCharacter will stop being so pessimistic but it was said in a way that was so unsatisfying to me.

Just a weird teenage boy hating everything, being sexist, racist and homophobic at the same time. Definitely of its time.

When I first read this book I laid in bed for a week straight. This book is good when you’re in the teenage angst phase. However, I like it les each time I read it. I still think it has literary value, it’s just not for everyone and not great for the mentally ill.
