oliverlang 's review for:

The World and All That It Holds by Aleksandar Hemon
2.25
slow-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Plot
Strong character development: Complicated
Loveable characters: No
Diverse cast of characters: Complicated
Flaws of characters a main focus: Complicated

This scrambled my brain in so many ways I'm not even sure where to begin.

It felt like reading approximately 4 different books at once. Sometimes it felt like fiction, sometimes non fiction/an essay. In the beginning it was almost like trying to read a book in a language you're studying but not quite fluent in. 

I was very slow to read this because it just failed to grab my attention for long enough, I'm glad that's over.
