The writing style of this book didn't gel with me. I wanted to like it, and there are elements of the story that were powerful, but the narrator doubts themselves so frequently that it became difficult to get invested. The sentences are long and slow, and the more abstract and profound sentences don't hit hard because the next ten sentences will be the same.
