I bought a used copy of this and it had lots of annotations in it. You could say there were too many notes.

I’ll see myself out.

It was really good, but I feel that there are too many parallels between The Great Gatsby and this book, and I didn't really like Gatsby that much. To be honest though, the characters of this book are far more bearable. Really enjoying Stahr's affair with a woman who looks like his dead wife.
