gross just for the sake of it doesn't make the book good.
quite shitty, literally, and very edipus-esqe
left me feeling 'ugh' and being glad that it's over.
now it's time to forget, which will be easy for me.
although I probably should have stopped early on giving that it wasn't giving.
can be similar to Murakami, if you took the fun and life out, and left the way he writes woman characters and off-putting scenes.
to conclude,

It's so bad I want to give you a zero. But that's not possible. so I give you- a one.
