i read this on a really long flight, so boredom might have been a factor, but this book mostly just glided along until the end. i like expository detail and i’m not picky about needing the plot to be purposeful at all times, so i didn’t mind that the book sort of drifted towards the end. the pov was a little tricky to wrap your head around, but i stayed interested enough to finish it. i will say, the last page made me go :O and i did not see it coming at all so for that i think it’s worth the read.

Wilson’s prose is precise, perceptive and propulsive. Protagonist is an unreliable narrator, but he’s written in a way that forces readers to consider how reliable our own stories are, especially the stories we tell about ourselves… how much self-deception is going on in our heads? How much self-aggrandizing are we guilty of? Is it even possible to ever know?
