Bizarre

Obviously, the subject matter was very eye-opening and disturbing, but as far as the overall novel and how it was written......it was so bizarre. It just felt like we were going in circles and there was absolutely no resulolution to anything. I kept waiting for something to happen or be explained, and then it just ended. Such strange writing.
