DNF on page 176.
The writing was very good; some of the prose was beautiful and the characters felt so real. It was just very heavy, about normal & terrible things that happen in real life, which is not the kind of fiction I personally enjoy reading. It kind of reminded me of Catcher in the Rye in tone and general sense of disenfranchisement. It’s also a long book, I’m giving myself permission not to finish it.
