How the fuck did I finish and enjoy a book with no plot whatsoever?
Is this part of the message of this book?

The movie does a better job at pacing a narrative.

Christian Bale never microwaves and eats a jellyfish though, so I can never like it as much as the book. I don't even like this book.

How do you enjoy Life? It also has no plot. The answer to this question is the same as the first one.

i actually really liked this book, despite my pretentious aversion to popular transgressive fiction.

Just stop reading it. There's really no surprise or literary redemption at the end.
