Not really sure how I felt about this book, but I can’t stop thinking about the line:  
“Days came like dead moths on the bathroom counter.”
Will probably reread eventually.

This wasn't really for me. I kept going because it was just compelling enough that I wanted to know what happened, I suppose, but what did happen was.... eh. And the rampant misogyny throughout was just... a lot. Occasionally, there were some funny bits, and I really like the red skull cover, but glad to move on.

This book just felt unnecessary. Like, the whole way through, I was just thinking "that could have been cut". It was just BORING. And the
bank robbing
only happened right at the end. Good idea, not very well executed. So poorly excuted, in fact, that it's just a plain bad book in general.
