3.0

 This is an exploration of different aspects of a person's life from love, sex, identity, age and so on. It is highly character-driven, and everyone's connected. Some of the characters I really enjoyed reading about (Dominique/Morgan/Shirley), while others not so much (Winmore/Penelope). 

I didn't find the writing style difficult (limited use of punctuation). Basically every new sentence starts on a new line, like poetry. It is beautifully written, but with no "actual" Plot, I found it difficult to feel motivated to keep reading
