No because I'm so depressed now. A real thinker this one!

I am reading this for my course, but reading a year ahead as I already had this book on my bookshelf before I found out that I had to read it! At the beginning, the storyline was difficult to read due to the relationship between the characters, but when it came to the middle, I found it really great and I really enjoyed it. It was very thought-provoking, sad, beautifully written as I felt it captured the thoughts and emotions of Michael and wider society well. By the end, I was thoroughly enjoying reading it - perhaps enjoying is the wrong word, but hopefully you get what I mean! Will be reading again (mostly because I have to next year!)!

I read this book in my german class and even though the writing was weird it was not the worst book I had to read in school.
I did enjoy the first part, but I have to say the second and third part were totally unnesessary. And erotica? Are you serious? No, I didn't like the story, the only thing good was the writing, even though the main protagonist, Michael Berg, never really talks but tells how things were.

it’s ok. i read it for school, after reading the first 20 pages i thought it was going to be a sex novel but the ending was really good. after hanna left things calmed down with the intensely sexy descriptions and it got suuuuper philosophical which was pretty nicely written. in the end i would say that i quite liked it actually.
