Query: Annoying

I wish my friends who read this book had told me not to waste my time; I guess I should have interpreted their lackluster endorsements as attestations to the book's mediocrity.There are no sympathetic characters. The book is too fantastical to be a memoir. The depiction of mental illness is shallow and contrived. The writing style is amateurish. I'd give zero stars if an option.i.e. Don't waste your time.
