neon fish

Had to read this in class and I'm physically struggling to finish it. Don't get me wrong I love reading and literature but this book is terrible. The narration is dry and bland and over describes useless things like an entire two pages dedicated to a list of names that are never mentioned again of people that go to a party for no reason at all. The narrator Nick does nothing for the story he has like six lines and he's just kind of there, he contributes nothing to the story other than telling the story. None of the characters are actually likable, it's boring, confusing, and overall a bore to read. Plus over half my class didn't even know how Gatsby died because it was so confusing and we only figured it out after we googled it. 0/10 don't read it if you can it is a waste of your life and painful to stomach.
