I’d like to give this another go. I got confused partway through

I tried reading this one twice. It’s good. I just never seem to finish it.

It was okay. I just slowed down in my pace and didn’t get through it before I needed to take it back to the library

challenging dark slow-paced

DNF at page 98. 

I really wanted to enjoy this and the first few chapters definitely intrigued me, but overall this really wasn’t for me. 

It wasn’t written in a way that was enjoyable for me and this could’ve been due to the translation. I didn’t enjoy the visceral sexual imagery, which felt violent and random. I also feel like it dealt with so many topics with not much time. The non-linear storytelling (which I usually enjoy) made it so difficult for me to attach to any characters.
