Huh.
This book is so unlike anything I have read before, I honestly can’t even begin to describe it.
The story is solely told in the first person viewpoint of the main character, Abby. Most of it comes across as a stream of consciousness of her personal dreams, thoughts, feelings, experiences and opinions of her life and that of her best friend, Elise, who she seems to be more than a little obsessed with. She considers her dreams, art, opinions and experiences in something like meditation to be of the upmost importance. At times, she appears to be a bit manic-depressive because of days spent alone, huddled in her room and then the opposite, extreme bursts of energy.
There is an occasional foray into sex and thoughts of sex with the characters in this book.
I don’t know how to rate this one. The author did an excellent job of writing this book, and while I found it somewhat interesting, this isn’t the kind of book I’d enjoy reading more than one of. So maybe 3 stars.
