    i mean it's not bad, great effort actually from the translators kudos to them but it's definitely an acquired taste... to some, but not me i wanna read fast or skim thru and still understand whats going on. english isnt my first language so i struggle doing that with this book lol i shut my brain off when i read to completely relax but since this is deep english i have to use my brain lol
