Ugh hated. I persisted for a few chapters but the portrayal of someone who has sustained a traumatic / acquired brain I just is honestly disgusting. The main character (with the TBI) is treated like he has no intelligence at all and the other characters treat him like an idiot. The voice the narrator does for this character is clearly attempting to make the character sound dumb and child like and I hated it. It's gross.
