made me feel like i was going to vomit the first half of the book, the other half i was just wanting it to be over. I understand that these stories need to be told but then on the other side, what did i take away from it? what did i learn? As Andrea Long Chu in her Article for “The Vulture” wrote: “The book’s omniscient narrator seems to be protecting Jude, cradling him in her cocktail-party asides and winding digressions, keeping him alive for a stunning 800 pages. This is not sadism; it is closer to Munchausen by proxy.”

It was a hard read to say the least. 
I could barely get through the first 6 chapters. After getting to know the Main characters i really got into it. Hanya Yanagihara has a beautiful style of writing and a special way with words.
