This book was a tough one to get through.. it is so... icky. The content is disturbing and Humbert Humbert is the biggest, grossest creep ever to literature.
.
That said, the reason this has so many stars is because the prose itself is really lovely. I was determined to finish the book despite the ickiness and the writing helped a lot with that.
.
Still... Ick.
