I actually didn't even finish it, I disliked it that much. I loved the premise, and there were a few characters I liked, but I HATED the powerpoint part and I grew weary of the hippy drippy minimalist "we use five words to say nothing about the whole of what we feel and the entire universe" crap. I also remember intensely disliking almost all the female characters, finding them cliche-ridden grab bags of neuroses and fashion model fake poses, but maybe it just struck me wrong? I was super let down, given the hype that surrounded that book, but then again I couldn't make it one sentence through the corrections because of that unbelievably irritating italics thing. <br /><br />I guess, in short, long meanders through some one else's very minor mental issues that have been enlarged to a macro level ain't my bag. naomihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09733442984533293340noreply@blogger.com
