It was alright. Better than the movie at least, but I don't see why it was so recommended. What are your opinions?

Kubrick at least gave it a better ending.

You mean he chose the american ending.
The book meaning gets butchered with the american ending, although the original one was a bit awkward.

This book makes a lot of sense when you're 18 and have beef with your dad over your drug usage and he's considering kicking you out but you still think he's a dumb old man but deep down your questioning your maturity and intelligence and why he puts up with you

Because Kubrick was a hack who made shitty movie adaptions of great books for most of his career.
