I want to like this, really, but it just makes no sense. It’s clear that’s the intention but how do you write a novel with this many subplots and resolve literally none of them? I’m invested, I finished the book, and it’s so dissatisfying. What did I read? I have no idea. What’s the point? I have no idea. Does the author know? Does anyone know? I’m not mad, I’m disappointed. *shrug*
