The writting is incredible, and it was interesting to see the different POV on why the people act the way they do, and how we justify or give meaning to our lifes. A lot philosophical ideas were thrown into the narrative.
However, the bullying scenes were a bit too harsh to read, I understand the meaning of these scenes, it was just hard to go through
