I understand why this novel is important and great, but it doesn't change the fact that there were chapters I just felt like were a chore to read, even as there were also chapters that were very fun. The narrator rambles and does virtually nothing the entire book, which night work for some people, but not for me. I did enjoy the fact he was incompetent at living.

Basically, every man in his social circle is a total loser. In that sense, I was really reminded of The Sun Also Rises, a story full of characters I had a distaste for.

There's a dream chapter that's a little weird, but otherwise really cool story. Author delicately walks a line between friendship and romance for a long time, and story has a touching ending.
