The book was fine in terms of writing and being easy to read quickly, but the whole story felt pretty pointless. The ending didn’t clear anything up and it was confusing why anything happened, there was no resolution (not in a thought-provoking way, just an unsatisfying way).  Nothing redeeming, just shitty situation after shitty situation.
