[ 1.0 stars ] "I'm all for non traditional layouts and approaches to writing, but it just felt like there was little to no explanation to join things together in this book, and for the most part I was too irritated with the lack of an interesting plot to make the effort to try to connect things on my own.

[ 5.0 stars ] "I love Plascencia's metafictive writing style. His approach is so different from the traditional metafiction and so less, for lack of a better word, douchy.

[ 5.0 stars ] "A mental journey. Every page is a mystery until the story develops and it begins to come together like a puzzle you didn't know you were putting together. I can't wait for his next novel; if there is one. I hope so! ..." Courtesy by Amazon

[ 4.0 stars ] "Reading this reminded me a little of Murakami's The WindUp Bird Chronicles in terms of the surrealism. There was a time when people were made of paper. A boy's cat is butchered and the grieving boy revivifies his cat by making paper organs and becomes the world's first origami surgeon. A woman is made of paper while her creature is left with multiple paper cuts all over his hands. A ba ..." Courtesy by Amazon
