4.0

Definitely an interesting read. I think there are themes of vanity, mental illness, ambition, addiction, and the consequences of all of these.
While it wasn’t the most riveting book in terms of writing (i think there were parts that dragged on), it caused me to stop and think on many occasions, hence the 4 star rating.
