4.0

engaging, eery, and reminiscent of the unnerving quality of grotesque wealth associated with american summers and vacations. i understand the ending, but it was a little disappointing, especially with the build up throughout. i have a theory that dom was not even a real person, since we only ever get his communication through phone and the details of alex and him are murky. lots of pleasant unveilings to consider in this feat from cline.

reading this book feels like you are in a drug filled haze alongside alex and you will leave this novel a little more unmoored from reality than when you started it; in a fantastically brilliant literary way
