This book was painstakingly slow. It didn't invoke much in me even though the theme had great potential to be extremely provoking. While the ending felt somewhat inspirational, the whole thing felt dull and mundane. Maybe that's what the author intended, but it was simply too boringkhartke's review against another edition

I’ve heard people say this book was depressing, which I understand, but I did not feel sad after reading it. Really appreciated the honesty!
Guess you either love it or hate it, I loved it.
