1.5 rounded down

I was so excited for this one, but I could not understand a thing that was happening. Surreal to the point of nonsensical, with no discernible plot. I have no idea what was real or dream, the POV shifted from first to second with no apparent reason, and I truly could not tell you what happened in this far-too-long-for-what-it-was book. Baffled.
