3.5

Not the most enjoyable reading experience which is why I gave it a meh rating. But I took note of lots of phrases and passages. There’s  lots of fun things to analyze but overall my rating is really just because I didn’t ENJOY it. Not to say it’s a bad book. 

Very slow and annoying at times but the big plot points are spaced pretty evenly so I’d just push through the boring dinner party dialogues.
