I made it to page 53 before I decided it was irritating me too much to continue. I'm not totally sure what I found so off putting, other than a boatload of pretension from the characters. Which, you know, may have been very fitting for the characters, but was super annoying for me.

Let's see if I can find an example... Yes! I can. I did not love this bit on page 15: I sighed. (How perfect my recall of these small details. I sighed, reader; I remember it as if it were yesterday.)
