what exactly was the point of this book… it’s like the author just wanted to write a really weird book and that’s exactly what she did  

don't get me wrong, i love weird books but this one of the books i feel like were written for the sake of being weird. at the beginning, i could kinda see what the events of the story vaguely represented and why they were written, but eventually i lost sight of that and it became a matter of how much can we make the reader cringe.
