3.0

An interesting novel that explores the experience of reading while struggling to keep its reader, or maybe just me, engaged. I wish men would learn how to write complete female characters instead of hollow shells of women with very little personality and a whole lot of breasts.

probably one of the most painful reads i had the misfortune of experiencing. perhaps it's because i don't have the Right Intellectual Mind to properly enjoy this book. i had friends who warned (and complained) of the contents of this book, and i should've listened to them.
