it's a very fascinating and morbid story but why is it so long? I haven't even finished yet but know that it couldve been 50% shorter. it's incredibly repetitive, too sensational like it was written purely to be turned into a movie (which I googled at like 25% into the book and it is was in fact made into one) it manipulates your feelings and also hallucinates scenes that author just had no right of knowing.

it's interesting so far but fucking hell why is there so much emphasis on the beauty of these girl. would it be less tragic if they were ugly? or just regular looking? every time a new girl is introduced we just have to know that she was so beautiful and had such nice teeth etc. I'm confused.
