I have read this book more times than I can remember. I have bought this book four separate times and I’ve given away three copies to friends and exes. There is one word I always come back to in order to describe this book: haunting. There is no plot. The characters are unlikable at best and heartbreaking at worst. This book is an experience that I hope more people will discover.
