I won this book in a Goodreads First Reads contest.
This is not a book with a plot. Rather each chapter is a little story. And the experimental nature of them totally ruined them for me.
The first chapter was fine, a story about a guy having flashbacks, although it could have been fleshed out a bit.
Then the second chapter is where things start to go wrong as it contains wacky character names, and over-the-top place names, that they take over the story ruining it in my opinion, but that is nothing compared to the next two chapters which are written in an accent that I couldn’t work out decisively, and that made these chapters near unreadable.
The fifth chapter reverses the trend and gives a little story with inspired character names, Mannequin Streetwalker, inspired presumably from a similarly named Star Wars character, but whose nature very much matches her name. But again the story could have been fleshed out.
And then the remaining nine chapters descend into stream-of-consciousness nonsense with wacky place and character names remaining. It was a bore to follow, and even then I didn't.
Not even the cover is good.
