We have been talking about reading this book all year in class, and I was very excited for it. Than we began to read it and I hated it. There was nothing I enjoyed about this book. I felt it just dragged on and on and on. There was to much thought into detail and setting and symbolism than anything else. I just could not get into it. I am very disappointed.

negative ten billion stars. just had to come back and review this book to say that I still have not recovered from reading this in year 12. the best this book did is make me realise the depth of hatred I could feel for something.
