I read this book because of major FOMO. I had a feeling it wouldn’t be my cup of tea but I still went ahead with it. Therefore my review is quite biased. 
At times I felt like I was too dumb to understand the book and then it simply made me go „WTF?!“. 
Needless to say it’s not one I thoroughly enjoyed and I am sad to admit I really don’t get the hype.

I found this book very tense, disturbing & at times, confusing. I understand where the author was trying to go with it, however I feel that it fell a bit short of that.

Not my type of stuff but I appreciate it for what it was. It was super twisted and slightly horrific but still managed to connect you to the main character’s loneliness. The desire for connection and also a really good observation (and exaggeration) of studying the arts, stereotypes and cliques. 

I’ll admit I have absolutely no idea what was happening half the time or if certain things were meant to mean something in particular. But the writing was still succinct it was more the symbolism of it that I don’t think I totally understood
