Honestly this was mid, 2.5/5 ⭐️
It was obvious from the beginning that the narrator was unreliable (and unlikeable), which spoiled some of the plot twists. Wasn’t super invested in the plot since a major character flaw was given away early, and I didn’t feel particularly invested in any of the characters. I also think the author put in too many little AND big twists.

This book was fine I guess as a beach read but there were no really great qualities about it and I was bored most of the time. It was somewhat clever and there was an attempt at an interesting narrative style but it fell pretty flat.
i found the main character/narrator to be SOOOO annoying. he was so cocky that it was just unenjoyable to read. i don't mind unreliable narrators, but i don't think you are supposed to announce that?? like you need to let me trust you so then i'm WOW'd when you were lying.
the death scene happening like 5 times was so dramatic and i literally was ready for the book to be DONE. also, not finding out about the "death" until 50% is CRAZY. please drop that earlier on so i can actually be interested. by that point i did not care and was fed up. i don't know that i will ever read this authors work again.
