Molto più di questo by Patrick Ness

I'm still confused.

And the more I try to make sense of things, the more confused I get. CONFUSIONCEPTION!

What in the fucking fuck is this book supposed to be about?! My initial 3 star rating dropped to 2 because of the eventual conclusion I've come to. This book was an amalgamation of AcidTripMatrixWolverineTerminatorWestworldBlackMirror ideas with a smattering of childabuse-suicide-murder-diversity-sells and a dollop of deep quotes put into a blender and Jackson Pollocked onto 478 pages.

Now, not gonna lie, despite the story being ridiculously and unnecessarily dragged out, it was still riveting and intriguing. I recommend it if you're looking for a bit of a mindfuck while you're shoveling down the proverbial popcorn. But for the sake of your sanity, don't overthink it.

The cake is a lie.

It was interesting and captivating all the way through and I enjoyed reading it, especially liked the mystery of it. (Everything is a mystery in the beginning, even what genre the book is going to be). Reason for 3 stars is because I found the end unsatisfying and for me a satisfying end is one of the most important things for a good book. It wasn't awful, I just had high expectations.

I did not realise this was a YA book, the genre is not something I'd usually reach for however I still enjoyed the book and feel that if I was in that age bracket it may have been a 5 star book

Whatever happened to you down there, whatever the world looks like now, that's not how it always looks. That's not how it's always going to look. There's more. There's always more.

no idea how i felt about this so im going with a 3 star rating. dont know if i particularly like the ending?
