3.0
adventurous mysterious reflective fast-paced

Strong character development: No
Loveable characters: No
Diverse cast of characters: N/A
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

Unreliable narrator slow reveal of his mental state & disturbance as he.. swim across the swimming pools of the county to reach his home. A psychedelic summer read, super short one at that but felt as long as the miles he swam his way accross.
