3.5

It's a collection of stories that have a very open ending and it's upto the reader to make of what the characters end up feeling. There's too much emotions to read in between the line and it's one of the few books I have read in the recent past with so much left unsaid. Once you get the hang of the author's style, it gets intresting but again with very little context and an abrupt ironical conflict in the plot, the book is not one of my personal best reads.
