Is this supposed to be infuriating? Am I supposed to be confused?

shits pretty good

>> No.4045815

Just finished it a few weeks ago.
Loved some parts, hated the majority of it.
A lot of it seemed like random edgy shit, like reading a /b/ thread or something. "And then this dude fucked this dude IN THE BUTT OMG and then this girl stabbed him and a weird creature jizzed and they injected it in their veins it was sooo crazy."
Since I wasn't invested in any story or characters, I found a lot of it to just be so boring.
I still want to read it again though, just to take in all the shit I missed the first time.

Into the mind of a creative writing junky. Expect some wild liberties not to be taken.
