A review by skbarks
The Instructions by Adam Levin

4.0

Holy crow. This was intense. I wish I could give it 4 1/2 stars--I obsessively loved most of it, but thought it went off the rails a bit at the end. Loved the language, loved the characters, loved the mythology created around the central action.

From (near) the end of the book: "The first time you finish any truly great book that isn't the Torah, you remember the end the best....All great books command re-reading, but you can't ever read the same book twice." This might be a great book, I'm not sure. I'm not sure if I'll ever re-read it. But it was a hell of a ride.
