A confusing, fragmentary narration which makes perfect sense with the subject matter. A short and rather touching read, with a surprisingly beautiful ending. Having to get into the writing style is worth it.

It's an interesting book but the eriting style isn't something for me. Sometimes it's so loveable and relatble but sometimes it's also very confusing. I really don't know what to think about it.
It gives me really mixed feelings cause I like the topic but it's just... I don't know how to describe it.
