This is a feelings novel, but at least in the first two thirds it's all about how feelings are fucking baffling and surreal and uncontrollable and illogical and nothing will work out as you expect so trying to puzzle out the "right" thing to do can only hurt and hobble you. The little arbitrary moral/community rules that everyone tries to impose on the chaos (no plastic bags; no b***hes) are pathetic in both senses. What a mood!!!!
The last third, on the west coast, was an odd disconnect from the first sections. It did turn out to have been leading towards something, as aimless (though engaging) as it felt at the time.
There's so much going on. This is such a messy, surreal book. And I totally loved it. I liked the book as a whole more than I liked any of the characters, which isn't typical for me.… (meer)
