I think I have to give it 5 not because I absolutely loved it but bc it made me think and it made me feel and isn’t that the point of art? Honestly this whole book was so weird and every sentence was a wild ride in itself but there were also so many truisms of life laced throughout. I couldn’t decide if I loved or hated Cheryl but I was rooting for her either way, which I think says something.
