I want to rate this book less, but I guess it’s a little bit complicated. It was definitely not my kind of read (I had to read it for school), but you can’t really ignore the whole psychological and social aspects of this book. I definitely did expect more given the blurb text, but it was mainly character development without any real development. It was a character plot.

At the end I wish some stuff were left out to leave it to our imagination. That would have fit more to the book/writing style.

I have no idea what to say. It’s was weird, that’s for sure. At some points I got and understood the story and at other points I didn’t. So it was weird. I gave it 3 because at times where I understood it, I liked the story and the idea. But there were a lot of gaps to fill in.
