Kinda boring, but interesting premise. Character reactions seem a little overdone. Dialogue is unconvincing.

School made me read this text. The story really fascinates me. It's very interesting and tragic. I really liked the plot of the story.

And to understand the story more, I also watched this hilarious clip in youtube that really helps:

4/5 stars

For a school book, this wasn't half bad. Weird as hell, but at least tolerable.
