Its dark. Its messed up. And its somehow quite beautiful.

Ta kirjutab huvitavaid jutte, mis on enamasti pealtpoolt humoorikad ja kergatsid, aga kusagil võtavad nagu muuseas kätte ja tekitavad mõtteid ja tundeid. See ka, vahepeal tahtsin juba tydimusest ohata, aga siis - mõtted, tunded.

Great premise, last few pages were juicy and dramatic but the overall experience was so meh.

Non-linear narrative that is even further compounded by the fact you don't know who's memories are being told to you. And nobody's named. The narrator is a real piece of work or as he tells you often "I'm no angel." I liked trying to figure out what was going on and am still fairly certain I missed something. Very interesting, all the same.

I thought this was an interesting little story that was damn addicting, even though it read like a drunken man's memoir. It moved at a quick pace, and was almost 100% character driven. While the world had some interesting tidbits, it was almost only for the characters development. I thought it could have been a little more organized, but then the story wouldn't have had the same effect.
