the continuation from the sympathizer was seamless. i love this book but not as much as i love the first. at times so much happens and youre left thinking "wait, what the fuck??" for a while, until you reread the part and finally absorb the events. the book waits for no one. honestly it's all just one big mind fuck. the ending left me SO CONFUSED.
