I liked many things about this book, in particular many of the reflective sections really stuck with me. I will say the end went over my head, but I guess that's the point.

I felt compelled to hold this book to my chest and hug it after reading. Such a tender and painful and completely modern novel that felt so true to itself and so exact in its language and story.
