A book where you don’t understand anything but understand everything at the same time. It doesn’t follow rules, it just follows a story that sucks you in and makes you unaware of your surroundings for a while because to me it felt like I was IN IT. 4 stars and not 5 because I think it took me a while to actually enjoy it and like it, but at the end of the day I would still totally recommend it!

very close to giving it a five. I quite liked it; the writing, the characters, the metaphor. A splash of humour. Kept me engaged the whole way through.
