okay this is a quick easy read and yes you are supposed to hate the narrator but tbh i did feel like a lot of the allegations against this author were true after reading this. This book is definitely a testament to the fact that we live in a post DFW literary world but the experimental prose partnered with an uncompelling and stereotypical plot made it just meh for me personally. What is intended to be accomplished narratively is accomplished but you're left at the end wondering, who cares?
