The actual idea is great. My main problem about this book is that if I wouldn’t read it for university and deeply analyse it, I may have not even caught the point. The execution is bad for many reasons but to narrow them down, we read a character driven plot where characters aren’t even that important ? They don’t really evolve they don’t seem to think until the plot needs it somehow. Cute book otherwise.
