Review of 'RU' on 'Goodreads'
4 stars
This is a difficult book to review. The book was described to me as less of a complete story than a series of flashes, like rays of glimmering light. The writing style made it impossible for me to generate any kind of emotional connection, since it would move so quickly from one thing to another. This is appropriate, though, as the book spends quite some time talking about the author's/character's inability to feel emotional attachments.
It is definitely something more than an average book, but not one of my favorites, so 4 stars seems about right to me.
