Reading that book needs a support group, not a book club. It was strange, I think someone recommended the book to me, I started reading it, and immediately regretted the purchase. Then, by chance watched 'The End of the Tour' and realized who the author was. That attempt, I made it to the YEAR OF THE DEPEND ADULT UNDERGARMENT so many times I lost count.
The book reminds me of reading unformatted code, something from a decompiler.
