The timelines are definitely hard to follow at times but the stories of these characters make up for the confusion. You’re in a time warp learning about each intertwined person and it’s very compelling and interesting. Interesting enough that I finished it in a day!

Yet another pretentious book about how how humanity will never be anything but depressed and terrible people. Not to mention this is of course only written about the most privileged in our society.
