[fiction]
I'm analyzing my feelings about this book.
It was definitely outside of my comfort zone.
The characters were NOT LIKABLE, and
there was too much of what I felt was unnecessary
vulgar language.
But somehow, I liked this book. Liked it, but
did not love it.
Setting aside the use of vulgar words, and the
fact that I did not care for the characters, the
fact that I did not care for the characters, the
writing itself is amazing.
And how is it that a book with ingredients I
usually hate makes me feel that, in some ways,
I have grown, have stretched, as a reader?
