I went into this book expecting it to be so much more than it ended up being. I feel like something is missing from it. I just couldn't get into it, even though I finished it. I will definitely not be reading this again. 

If you like stream of consciousness and books on the line of HBO's 'Euphoria' then you'd probably enjoy it. Mostly, though, it's just really sad.
