Finished and can move on with my life
I’m not sure how to describe my experience of reading this book. There are glimmers of humanity but overall it is self indulgent masculine dribble. It was depressing and irritating but strangely kept me reading. By 3/4 I felt I had invested so much energy that I needed to finish. Just happy to move on with my life.
