-1 - Mis/Not Communicating Troup (BARF) 

-1 - the spicy scenes seem in direct conflict with the overall lighter tone of the novel and it takes away from a otherwise great narritive. They are also just kinda ick inducing. I had to fastforward thru them espcially the closet scene bc it came so out of the blue and didnt feel earned at all.

-0.50 - Third act break up and man child behavior

-0.25 - Pacing is a bit off and by halfway through I was kinda done with it
