I'm not a big fan of the ending, as it doesn't match any themes of the prior chapters, however, it was very Vonnegut-esk, which I enjoyed. In a span of 224 pages, Phillip K. Dick has brought the existentialism of humanity to us through only a few characters. It carries many messages and themes and is great to annotate and analyze.
But fr tho, one of my favorites.

This book was a bit too existentialist and convoluted for my taste, but it's a quick read, and it held my attention.
