Hey look. There's the title. 
What I expected to be the climax happened at the middle of the book, so you know like...the author has stuff planned... 

So I am ruined. No one talk to me. I just want my physical copy of the book to come in already so that I can underline and tab the ENTIRE book. I don't know how I'm going to recover from this book. Like...I just want to read it and read it and read it and read it.
