I didn't really feel connected to the characters or story until about halfway through. The story is heart-breaking.

Starts with an interesting premise and then the main character leads you on a never ending slog without many insights. Don't punish yourself

It was ok. Great idea and interesting how the story sort of spins out into its own realm but got boring near the end. His first book is far superior, but I appreciate the valiant effort!

The ending was so much better than the beginning. A slow start that jumped around in terms of timeline. Once it got into the meat of the story, it was a quick read and the lack of details increased the imagination involved in reading it. A beautiful story of life and death and living and dying.

This is one of the worst, most depressing books I’ve read in a while. I enjoy dark, I don’t always mind unsatisfying endings…but this was an absolute misery to endure.
BTW I loved Then We Came to the End.

I found this much-hyped novel about a successful lawyer who suffers from an unnamed affliction -- well, he is a compulsive walker and often finds himself waking up on the ground miles away from home -- too dreary for my tastes.
Ferris writes beautifully, but the premise would have worked better as a short story. I couldn't connect with the characters and they seemed one-dimensional. For an amazing novel about how illness affects the family, read Jerry Pinto's [b: "Em and the Big Hoom"] instead.

I'm typically a fan of Ferris's work, but The Unnamed didn't do much for me. The characters were a bit underdeveloped and lifeless. I found the narrative hard to follow at times. Ultimately, I just didn't really care what happened to Tim and his family. The Unnamed isn't a bad book, but I wanted the story to end so that I could read something else.

So terrible that I couldn't even finish the first 100 pages. Tries way, way, way too hard to be dramatic in a way that falls completely flat but feels like the author was probably smuggly patting himself on the pack the entire time.
