Well, that's 5 hours I'll never get back. I was going to try to make it halfway, but I just couldn't torture myself anymore, so 33% it is.
This jumps around to a bunch of different characters, none of them doing anything interesting and none of the "stories" seem to be related to one another. The writing isn't bad, but none of it seemed to lead anywhere.
The .5 is for the guy turned into a donkey story (which was very short) and then the story about the autistic kid that described how tortured he was by sounds and smells at school and how things changed when he found noise dampening earmuffs.
