“I’m going to go home and sleep with my wife… AND make her cum.” ☝️🤓

Okay, I went into this book with high expectations. And honestly, I really liked it but it was just so long. I really had to concentrate and force myself to sit down with this book. Around the first 300 pages, I had hardly any interest. But for the last 200 pages or so, I was absolutely obsessed. Overall though I liked it. Probably wouldn't read it again though. Just not my cup of tea.

This was... weird. It got weird. Perhaps a mite too esoteric for my mood going in, but still good.

I think this could've used a little trimming, but I did like a lot of the themes and atmosphere.
