A grossly overrated book. It's enjoyable, but the writing feels unfinished and superficial.

After hearing about this book for years and finally now have read it, it is not at all what I suspected it to be about. It did confuse me a bit and I had to constantly reread paragraphs/sentences to understand what was happening at times but it was still an alright read.

I didn’t hate it, but I have no idea why it is considered great. Jake’s narration was good.

this book was honestly a rollercoaster of emotions. i kind of wish that it would have ended differently. now on to the movie.

I didn't like it at first and was bored, it felt like it wasn't going anywhere, but around half way through I was addicted and finished it in one sitting.
