The visuals are stunning but I'm reeeeaally not into this type of absurdist writing because it's personally really hard for me to follow. Tangents happen all the time and every piece of dialogue feels so filler. I get what it's going for but this stuff is personally not for me. Also with the limited color palettes, it's actually quite difficult to keep track of characters because the designs are really similar.... Wild looks like 2 other people. I was left feeling confused for most of the book. It is extremely stylish though, all in all. Just not my cup of tea.
