When I read the synopsis for this book and a few reviews on Goodreads, what I expected was very different from how it actually was. I wasn’t much a fan of the main character, I didn’t think he had much substance, and it took me well into the last couple of chapters to actually feel much element of interest. He was too interested in spying on other peoples lives, and no thought was given to the development of his own character. Still, I liked the ending and still enjoyed reading the book.

ספר מעניין, כתוב היטב ומרגש. הטוויסט המתגלה לקראת סופו מכווץ את הלב.

3.5 rounded up to 4. The book just didn't draw me in. Maybe it's because I read a fantastic WW2 right before that and my expectations and excitement were too high.
