4.0

I read this book for uni. My primary focus was on the photography aspect of it - still I was very positively surprised. I usually don't review books I read for uni but I am genuinely glad I read this book.

I was confused in the beginning and it's definitely a book you have to think about. Still the story captured me. It's so fresh and interesting. I lived the reality and fictionality of it and how the two merged. The experiences that are described are so realistic and also so absurd. They are funny and also sad. It's definitely unique.
