Open Water by Caleb Azumah Nelson

A Different Read
Honestly, I'm not sure what to think of this book. The style is very different; it is written in the second person. I don't recall ever reading an entire novel in the second person. It took some getting used to. There's a different flow to Nelson's writing style. He's very poetic; he uses a lot of repeats. There's also a stream of consciousness feel to his novel. Overall, I think Nelson. Is a very good writer, but I had trouble following the story.
