The first 100 pages felt like the author had crawled inside my head and listened to my thoughts. As the book went on it then began to become more and more unsettling and distressing until it culminated in a completely devastating ending. Not a book for everyone, and not something I would have read if I knew the plot, but I’m glad I did.

This was a bit of a mixed pot. The beginning and middle of the book are interesting and there’s some interesting philosophical points brought up in these sections. However, I found the third act of this book very difficult to get through, not particularly engaging and at times painfully jumpy. The ending brought everything back together in an interesting way though. I’d say it’s worth a read but maybe don’t add it to the top of your reading list.

Can I just say it’s the craziest book ive read this year and nothing else can top it?
Its crazy because prima facie it wouldn’t make any sense. There’s a lot that the reader has to decipher.
But what I love about this book is

it gives you an insight in a person’s mind who is going through a mental illness which I think is dissociative identity disorder. It could be schizophrenia as well. And has suicidal ideation and does attempt suicide at the end
