3.5

The funny thing is I finished this book jet lagged.
Read this on the plane to and from LA. I enjoyed it and the language used for descriptions. Overall the story was a little pretentious for my liking, but I understand why it’s so highly regarded. I think a 3.5 stars out of 5 for my reading experience is a fair score.
