3.0

I'm pretty sure I liked this. I say "pretty sure" because the way it's written is a bit odd. It's like the inner ramblings of a very odd person. 

When you first start the book there are a lot of references to stuff that don't really have an explanation and as the story goes on you realize what the main character is actually talking about. 

Though this story was not my typical read at all, I enjoyed it and think it will be enjoyed by the right person!
