I'm glad this book exists and that such stories are being told but there's a reason why this book, that's barely over a hundred pages, took me two weeks to read.

If I'd only read the book myself, i would have never gotten the intonation right in my head. The writing outside of the dialogue parts was also beautiful and i was never bored even in the parts that were from the point of view of the most horrible characters.
Uh. This was fine. I did really love some moments but for the most part it was uninteresting and the writing was pretty meh.

Usually his amazing insights on humans make up for his straightforward prose (which isn't the type of prose that i normally like), but I didn't find that here.)

Edit: the cover on Bancroft's website is absolutely gorgeous (as expected from this artist), why is it different from the one on here?
