Luca Rosner's story - or rather: stream of consciousness-like monologue about their journey felt very honest and raw while reading it, at times some of the words were like an open wound. Especially in the beginning, many lines and descriptions made me relate to the author.
I expected to learn more autobiographical details about the author's life, however they keep experiences and trauma often quite vague and leave a lot of guesswork to the reader. Unfortunately, the lack of a plot became monotonous after a while, and created a disconnect between me and text towards the end.
I liked the intermediality - there are lots of abstract illustrations, some QR codes, links to sound bites, social media, stickers... that is something I've rarely seen in books although the possibility to reference other (online) media has existed for some time now.
On a teeny-tiny sidenote, I would have prefered a clear indication which paragraphes were written by the author and which ones were created with the help of AI.
Overall, the emotional rawness made Luca's book very poetic in my opinion and I appreciated the reading experience.
