Pending review because what the hell did I just read. I need to sit on this and revisit. I don't think I'll ever forget this book but as I've just finished it, I'm still processing.

laurasauras's review against another edition
3.0
It took a while for the story to grab hold of me, but when it did, I managed to plow through to the finish. Some of the themes were a bit alienating, or I felt like I was missing out on some obvious symbol, but the general story was gripping, so I did really enjoy it, until the end. Because I was enjoying the book, the ending really grated on me. I won't spoil anything, but I really felt like there wasn't a resolution, and it was the kind of book that I already was uncertain of, so I ended up googling it to see if I had missed something, or if there was some critical analysis that I could read that would turn the subtext in to plain old text. I honestly don't know if I would read it again, or recommend it, but I am glad that I read it.
