honestly the problem with this book for me wasn’t even the narrator being a raging misogynistic/narcissistic sexual predator because i felt like that was kind of supposed to be the point (though it definitely wasn’t executed well). the main thing with it is that i just got so BORED. like it was interesting for the first couple chapters then you get to where he moves to minnesota and all he talks about is how it’s cold there for like 20 pages and like. i’m from minnesota myself and yes our winters are brutal but oh my god WE GET IT. this book is 150 pages and it feels like 500. i hate not finishing books so maybe i’ll come back to it but for now i just. i can’t do it. two stars because the cover and title are so good and i like the concept but it was just done so badly.
