I've thought about this book a lot since finishing it, and I still can't seem to figure out how I feel about it... I like the author's choice for the perspective through which the story is told, because it gets the point of the book across the most efficiently... but it's also a perspective I don't enjoy reading. So I think the intention of the story itself was great, but the reading experience wasn't that great
