I really hated reading this. It was so depressing.

I most definitely would of dnf'd if it wasn't a bookclub pick purely because I don't really like to read depressing books.. 
From the beginning, I hated fuckface (this is what I am calling him) because of how selfish all of his actions seemed. When the "romance" began I despised every sex scene because of him, he just put a gross tone on everything. I don't like how much she continued to have contact with him after leaving him (even if I get it because of the child) - it left me feeling really unsatisfied with the outcome.

I also wished we had seen more of Atlas and not wasted all the book on fuckface.
