I was far too sober to read this book. If you are a fan of nonsense novels then you may enjoy this weird young adult novel. Otherwise steer clear! The book opens with a warning to go to the author's website to learn how to properly read the website (which seems like it would be useful because trying to find the plot in this book....) - the only problem is the website no longer exists. The "premise" of this young adult novel is that a young female teenager wakes up in a weird asylum with no memory of who she is - all she knows is that people are trying to kill her. She runs away and finds herself in Paradiddle Lane - a high end street in the suburbs of Chicago. She runs into a high end collectible shop (that is alive) and a lonely German man takes her in and decides to raise her as his own. He enrolls her in a school for ultra rich teens called Prep and there she makes friends with some billionaires. While playing around she discovers she can enter different dimensions and time travel. Her friends are like, "that's cool." Nothing in this book makes any sense - it's weird and ironic and annoying and I hate read the whole book. Not one of the characters is likable, there is no plot, there are so many weird nonsensical asides. It was too much for me. Read at your own risk.
