I don't know what "message" the book was intended to convey, because it didn't make any sense to me
 
1° nothing interesting happened, only at the end.
2° boring characters - it seems that the author wanted to criticize capitalist society, but there was almost no consistency in the dialogues or personalities 
3° I didn't like the "love interest" - an asshole that the girl keeps calling "MY GAT. HOW I LOVE YOU" every 5 pages 
4 ° there are several analogies with fairy tales to explain situations that didn't need to be explained 
5 ° the end is AWFUL 

I DO NOT RECOMMEND
