2.5

sexist, racist(!), homophobic. But it was literally a love story between an alcoholic man, who can't remember a single thing and a rich man, who's been killed by him. Would have been a 3 to a 3.5 star, but because of all the sexism racism homophobia it's a 2.5. It was literally too much, why did she have to write the book like that?
