3.0

I enjoyed the writing style, but I didn‘t love the story and the way it was told. I didn‘t find the characters loveable or compelling, so I didn‘t exactly care about Daniel‘s “adventures” if you can call them that. I did enjoy some elements of the story, but it mostly dragged on. Had a hard time not DNFing this book.
