The Man Who Was Thursday: A Nightmare by G.K. Chesterton

4.0

Started out as a fun, light-hearted detective story. Got stranger and crazier as it went on. Nonetheless, I was glued to the book and finished it in 3 days. Chesterton's "The Man Who Was Thursday" made me laugh and made me think deeply; two things that are essential in a great book. The allusion to the Scriptures at the end of the book was amazing; it got me pulling out my Bible to understand the point that Chesterton was trying to get across. Recommended for those that enjoy fiction with a good philosophical outlook behind it.
