I finally finished it, it took so long. I couldnt motivate myself to read it, it had good quotes and a rather good writing overall but at the same time it was so boring?? i think it represents the male gaze very well but I think its a mediocre book, I am not a really big fan. MAKE SURE TO CHECK THE TRIGGER WARNINGS FOR THIS ONE, the beginning is pretty tough.
