the beginning was so much plotlessness in best way, truly a book about nothing. until it wasn’t. in that last 11% it all the sudden came to me that this was just an even more depressing great gatsby with 100x less money and more unreasonable crash outs. genuinely who could have guessed that the book suddenly getting an active plot would ruin it for me???
