I really wanted to enjoy this but struggled to get into it, maybe because I had to read it for uni, or maybe it's just because I'm in an end of year slump. That being said I liked it better than Neuromancer, which I definitely hated (sacrilege I know) 🖤

This had no paragraphs or chapters and I nearly died. It raised interesting thoughts about intellectual snobbery and anti-intellectualism; ideas neither I nor the narrator managed to reconcile. Everyone in it was awful and so am I. I rate it 🍷🍽️
