this is one of the most unique books i’ve ever read in that it was so unexpected and honestly, a little bit confusing! definitely liked it better than my year of rest and relaxation though i will say i like that both books captivated me and kept me reading - i couldn’t put them down. i love the unreliable narrator aspect and the mystery that draws you in and makes you want to forget the narrator is, in fact, unreliable.
