4.5 stars. 
 I loved this book. 
 I'm not going to say too much about it because I think it's better not knowing (that's how I went into it) but I highly recommend it. 
 Some people have mentioned they didn't love the language the author uses, but I did. I thought it interesting and, more importantly, perfectly fitting of this particular book and these characters. Besides, it's a pretty short book. It's not like there's 600 pages of metaphors. 
 Definitely staying with me a long time after finishing.
