2.0

For it to be a novella around 110 pages I certainly felt it was about 60 pages too long. It was so incredibly repetitive and I feel it would have been more impactful if I wasn't constantly trying to determine if I had already read that section of the story or not as it was the same thing over and over.

I get what the author was trying to do and the premise of the book was interesting but it just kind of fell flat for me.
