I didn't dislike this book but I also didn't like it. It reads very much like a memoir but it's not a memoir.
I wish it was written less like a memoir and more like just regular literary fiction in chronological order. I think not making it chronological brought the overall storyline down for me.
Personally, I was very engaged until chapter 15 which is where I believe the timelines start to go all willy-nilly and I lost my interest after that.
I also did not care for the main character, I was not particularly interested or invested in his story and I don't think there was any character growth.
Like I said not terrible but not great, took me forever to finish especially after chapter 15.
