Ich konnte richtig viele Menschen in dem Buch nicht ausstehen aber das habe ich geliebt! Das Buch ist ein Pageturner weil die Abwechslung der Schreibstile wirklich genial ist. Nichts desto trotz: das Buch hat keine Handlung? Ich dachte mir ab dem Sugar Glider Desaster dass ich irgendwie auch in einem Til Schweiger Drehbuch sein könnte. Viel New York, viele Drogen, viel Absurdes und viel Leben dass in den Köpfen vieler sehr romantisiert wird. Kann man machen, muss man aber nicht.

i liked this book but i think blue sisters was a stronger novel from coco mellors. if you like character driven stories, especially where the characters are kind of insane and unlikable you would probably enjoy this book. didn’t feel slow or boring at all, though my main gripe is that frank is such an unlikable character and
i hated that he ended up with what i think is a happier ending than cleo

On one hand the characters are written well and they all have attributes and insecurities that make them feel very human. The author goes into great detail with her characters and switching perspectives really allowed her to elevate each character into a deeper person, which I really appreciated.

On the other hand the plot sucked so much, all the characters have rocks for brains. The story only happens because the characters are stupid and make hare-brained decisions that are dumb in the moment and in hindsight. It feels like the author didn’t have much of an idea for how to get her characters to do things so she had them make foolish decisions.

I’ll also say it’s very nice to read a breezy book after slogging through the Oppenheimer biography, would recommend
