I've found it quite hard to rate and now review this book. I can see why it's a classic, but it's an odd book for me.

I absolutely adored the characters who were so well written and I felt like I had known them for years (even if they might not be that likeable).

Unbearable is a great delve into how infallible and complex humans are/can be.
