3.0

This book jumps around a lot and gets quite fantastical or meta. I was into it, but about halfway, I grew tired of the jumps. Also, I don’t understand why every woman in the book is sexualized. That seemed unnecessary and makes The Reader (yes, some of us are women!) uncomfortable. I did like how it keeps unfolding so I don’t want to say too much.
