There was a lot that I liked in the book. I liked the connections to real events. I liked that you got the story from a lot of characters point of view, and in my experience it didn’t make the story hard to follow. I liked the language and that the story stretched over years.
That said, it was very wordy and a bit unsatisfying to finish. A lot of threads that never really made a sweater, and the parts that I liked the best were the ones that didn’t really evolve in a way I would have enjoyed. This may sound harsh, but I’m not sure what the point of the story is now when I’m finished with it.
In many ways an interesting and certainly different read, that left me with a little bit of an “meh”-feeling in the end

Alllllll the trigger warnings for this one, very intense but not in a way that feels like it’s there just for shock value or is exploitative?leekaufman's review against another edition
