Read this as a teen, and it gave me the perspective on life I chose to live by still to this day - take it all in and appreciate it, because nothing lasts, and that’s ok

Fant den til riktig tid. Man trenger ikke så mye. Små "barnslige" ting kan gi mening, slik at du finner ut hva du egentlig vil. For eksempel kaste en ball eller sykle eller drikke vann. Hovedpersonen er en sympatisk ung mann, litt fortapt i en slags livskrise. Jeg er student og jeg kjenner igjen følelsen av å vite veldig mye, men samtidig ikke helt vite hva man skal med det og hva som egentlig betyr noe i livet. Jeg vet ikke om jeg ville ha likt boka like mye hvis jeg hadde lest den i en annen livsfase. Men sånn som det var, hjalp den meg med å komme ut av en slags mental krise. Og setninger som virker naive har ofte en dypere mening enn man tror.

This book read like sandpaper.
Boring but kinda funny.
The only real appeal this book has going for it is it’s use of mixed media. But it really isn’t anything worth doting about. An email, a flier, it all feels very gimmicky and unnecessary, as if the author couldn’t be bothered to write a description. There is like 20 pages of photocopies of the protagonist and their brother looking up rude words in Norwegian as authors.
The irony of this book is not lost on me. It’s just not very good.
