reminded me of the great gatsby with this unreliable narrator. Hm I  enjoyed this writing style because it felt really seamless and the recollection transitioned smoothly from one event to the next. could also pick up on the clues that he’s not a reliable narrator and that there’s sussy stuff happening, but I was still kinda confused with the reveal at the end and it felt anti climactic
