I'm so confused. Like I get it, but I don't GET it. I guess. Like I understand the gist of it, it's fairly clear. But it's only clear in the 2nd half where everything really happens and the first 70 pages just made me feel dumb. 

I just don't think I'm smart enough for this book honestly.

I read this as part of a reading challenge and was excited to try a book outside of my usual genres, but this was not for me. I found it really hard to follow and don’t think I captured what it was really about.
