Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close 3

I'm not sure how I feel about this book yet. I haven't even gotten to the 20% point and I'm already feeling uneasy about it. I actually like the start of the storyline, the main character and his perosnality, but it stills seems too scattered and a bit hard to follow. I still have to go read and reread lines because things change so quickly. And even the structure is different, with the lines of the different characters all smushed together in paragraphs rather than separate lines and visually that can be challenging for me sometimes haha. the font is rather small and the pages are long, so the simple appearance might actually be stressing me out. nd as I mentioned in a prior post, I'm still stressing out with school and a book like this may not be the correct choice right now. I want to be able to immerse myself in a book, and perhaps Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close is a book that requires special attention in order to truly grasp and assimilate the plot and the characterization without being distracted and discouraged by technicalities such as font size and page length. In reality, these things don't matter in your imagination.
