Picked this up on a whim and although I didn’t hate it, it wasn’t really my cup of tea. It was difficult to distinguish dialogue from inner thoughts since there were no quotations used. I hated the vivid descriptions of bodily functions, but overall the writing was good and I would pick this author up again. I enjoyed the themes of this book and I appreciated that there wasn't an unbelievable turn around in attitude by the end but there was some character growth.
