took me a long time but i really enjoyed. i liked the philosophy aspect i also loved the Drama and the Gossip. some points off for the blatant misogyny and anti-black racism and im not sure if i like how isabel’s character played out, although i liked the ending. im gonna research now to see if anyones figured out who these characters actually were in real life lol

also; all the summaries say this is a book about larry. but it is not more larry’s story than it is isabels or elliots or any other character. its really a chatacter study and is much more about how and why each character makes extremely different life choices in order to pursue their own happiness and purpose. i think calling it the story of larry really boils it down
