(Rounded down from 2.75)
I really wanted to like this read more than I did. The premise really intrigued me when I'd first read the blurb and I was up for a fun, short read, but I have to admit that though it was thought-provoking and frightening in parts, I found the writing a bit long-winded and repetitive and thus, a bit hard to follow either in that a particularly flowery description disrupted the flow of phrase or I'd gotten lost in the prose or continuous string of metaphors or similes that the author seemed really keen on using to describe things. In the end, I'd find myself mostly disoriented and having to reread the phrase once or twice to try and grasp what was trying to be said.
