Meh. By the time I finally got to the big reveal at the end I just didn’t care anymore. Book was too long with too many characters.

Well… I really wanted to like this one, but I had a few issues with it!
First- I felt there was a lot of characters, a lot of pseudonyms or nicknames (ex patient X), and I just had trouble keeping track.
Second- I felt the mystery/thriller aspect dragged on a lot, and I kept waiting for some wow moment or big suspense.
Third- the big twist in the last few pages felt rushed.

Hmmmm! I don’t know how to feel. I enjoyed all the psychological and scientific details, especially learning more about sleep issues and memory loss. And I did enjoy the characters, and they were described well so that I rooted or hated them!

I liked the premise of this a lot but it really doesn’t pick up until right at the end and there wasn’t any twists that I didn’t already see coming.
