I Know This Much Is True by Wally Lamb

3.25

3-3.5 stars. Interesting read…very flawed main character…but that is part of the story and he does experience some growth. Almost gave up around 300 pages in because of something he did. I had to put the book down for a day, but then decided to finish it anyways while just acknowledging that he’s done shitty things. Honestly I wish the book was from the point of view of the other twin (who is the more likeable one imo). Possibly questionable depictions of mental health. I wasn’t a fan of how heavy the end of the book was with whole chapters from his grandfathers memoir. I don’t know if I’m going to go around recommending this book, but I did enjoy reading it (for the most part). Longest book I’ve ever read and I only felt like giving up once, so that says something!
