Hrmmmmnghhhh.... I'm disappointed.
Once again, I've read a highly recommended book that unfortunately didn't live up to expectations. However, I will pat myself on the back for semi-guessing the twist about 3/4 into the book.
I didn't find the writing style to be quite appealing. I've seen others complain about the choppiness, but I found that to be the only thing appealing about it. Towards the end, it really lost me though. I feel like the twist could've been written better, but maybe it was intended to be that way.
Otherwise, I didn't find the story to be all that interesting, nor all that unsettling. But if you enjoy piecing a challenging mystery together and being utterly confused on where to place each piece, I'd say to give this book a try.

Tried to predict the twist in the end, and some of it I got, but the twist was a little weird to me. Perhaps one should do, as the author suggests and read it again, to see if it makes sense then.
Definitely a unique read, but perhaps not for me
