Reviewed by Lilian1.5 stars…just not a really interesting or well written book. If there is an other deeper meaning hidden in this book, besides the obvious critique against social norms, I couldn’t find it. I just can’t recommend it. Maybe the movie is better but I haven’t watched it.
Reviewed by Valentino Der Schreibstil ist wirklich gut nur leider mag ich die Geschichte nicht besonders, ist aber Geschmacksache.
Reviewed by filippai haven‘t decided if i find this immensely stupid or incredibly great, so 3 stars for now (also unexpectedly loved the afterword for some reason? + i absolutely adore the movie)
