This sounds so promising and written differently it could be. I choose this for the darkness that it could hold and the idea of it being a microcosm of society but it didn't live to anything as such. It was a show of the allure of death, of how easy it is to seduce someone to die, to change their mindset and help them destroy themselves, which sounds amazing but with such flat characters and boring scenes it really isn't much. If I were to think upon it I may be able to say how the lack of a plot has a link to reality and how reality doesn't have a plot line or a happy ending but I choose to not think on this. The characters aren't much of anything and so even they aren't able to save the book from the boring writing. 

I don't belive I was the right person to read this book but those who love to deeply analyse and understand the deeper meanings of the continuous use of short sentences even when it would be more common to use complex sentences then this truly is the book for you but for me I'm not interested in that.
