I'm not entirely sure how to properly review this book. It's not like your first inclination is to attach cute little stars to such a story.I feel it would be more appropriate to say, "I give this book 4 lobotomies".Yes, That's what I give this book- a lobotomy. Four of em.I was skeptical. Between the banning, and the multiple name changes, and all the hype, I thought it was going to be just that- hype. Nevertheless, when given a copy of Plenty of Fish, I gave it a chance to prove my skepticism wrong- and prove me wrong it did.In the words of D12/Eminem- this is a "journey into the mind of a psychopath killer."This isn't romance. This isn't lovely. This isn't a touching tale of redemption.This is the inner monologue of a sociopath, the creation of a killer. Cause and Effect. The road to perdition.You can't use your rational mind to explain this book rationally, because it isn't rational- it's a complete mind job.It's dark, it's twisted, it's bizarre, it's devastating, it's schizophrenic, it's a complete unraveling, and simultaneous rebirth.The phoenix rising from the ashes of abuse, only to shed its former skin and be born a monster.You can't "enjoy" this book, but you can certainly experience it.***I WAS GIVEN A COPY OF THIS BOOK IN EXCHANGE FOR AN HONEST REVIEW***
