How High We Go in the Dark by Sequoia Nagamatsu

Did not finish book. Stopped at 60%.
I really really wanted to like this more… and I really did like some parts. At times it felt so profound and the messages were spot on. And then others… I don’t know. I just got kind of bored, and the characters were just meh for the most part. Maybe I just don’t like the vignette style, and I didn’t know going in that it was written like this. Also the overwhelmingly male presence as narrators just got annoying. I didn’t really like any of the characters and the talking pig was just so out there it wasn’t believable. and I don’t mind darker topics at all, I just had a hard time liking this book in particular.
