I starter reading this in June, but found it very difficult to get through. Turns out the text is very small and I needed reading glasses. I now have them, and can read the text without problem.

My biggest impression of this book is that I despise David. He cheats on his girlfriend with Giovanni, then cheats on Giovanni with a girl he doesn't even like, and hurts all three in the process.

I wasn't expecting a happy ending, of course, but I also wasn't expecting the main character to be so horrible.
