3.0

This book is absolutely unhinged, chaotic, deranged. It was good, but there were several times I had to set the book down, put my head in my hands, and say “What the actual f*ck?” It’s like if Freud decided to write fiction in England in the 90s. If you want to feel a little pretentious and like you have an expanded vocabulary, this is also a great book for that.
