A review by lyrareadsbooks
Confidence by Rafael Frumkin

4.0

More of a 3.5. The first half was an absolutely delightful skewering of Horatio Alger stories and the American myth of rising to success. The second half was less satisfying, but I can’t pinpoint what it was - there were almost too many ideas that were pushed on but none successfully shifted into the full madcap parody achieved in the first half. Worth a read and I would seek out the author again.
