Rezension von umaiza bugguThe things I have to say about this book is beyond what I can put into words. The writing, the structure, the word play, the overall unexplainable emotion to the whole book. Everything about this book is insanely addictive. The fact that the book title is about a character who barely gets his point of view in the picture, and the whole book is from the point of view of a man who couldn’t man up for the people around him, but it still makes you feel for him, even when he’s obviously in the wrong. Chapters and chapters of it makes you want to curl up in a blanket and sob until you can forget what happens. 100/10 recommended. READ BEFORE U WATCH THE FILM PLEASE.
