I really felt for the lieutenant, carrying around that picture of the girl who doesn't love him.
One of my favorite books of all time actually. Love his writing style. Had no idea they were all short stories, but it makes a lot of sense now - I'd read 5 years ago. But I'm about to read it again for a class I have.
I tried to read it but it just sucked so much I couldn't force myself to finish
Why did you think it sucked? (Just curious.)Originally Posted by Drzava

It was just so boring and the writing felt so...bland and cliche, I dunno, I just didn't like it one bit...
