I just wasn't feeling the book at all. I found the main character annoying. And the way he was with Alask  felt like he didn't see her as a person and more like a fantasized version of what he wants to see her like. She felt like an attempt at a manic pixie dream girl for the main character. I also found Alaska pretty annoying and one dimensional.
