The writing style was not for me – it was trying too hard describing everything, trying to include every minute detail and combine these observations with astute or shocking additions that just did not pan out for it's intended effect. Overall, this was boring. I didn't sympathize with the protagonist because I don't feel like the author wanted me to, more like she wanted me to witness the protagonist's bad decisions which was fine at first but mixed with the overindulgent writing, got tedious real fast.
