I think maybe I need to be a bit older – to have grown up in the times – to be able to really sink my teeth into this one. I had gotten into my head that this was a book of short stories. I read the first chapter and was blown away. That was one of the best short stories I'd ever read. And then, I realized it was a novel. Not sure if that made it harder for me to get into. Honestly, the book was just okay, not great, for me. I like likable characters, and this one featured a lot of not-so-likables. Still, I'm glad I read it, and it was pretty illustrative. Not what I read fiction for, though, illustrative-ness.
