I think that I maybe should have saved this book for a vacation when I had more mental energy to invest. This book seems to be very polarizing and after reading it, I can definitely see why. I don’t mind a good epistolary novel (I loved The Appeal), but I did struggle with the fact that this entire story is told in a series of audio files (as opposed to The Appeal, which was emails, texts and other written forms of communication). The plot is wickedly clever and the twist is amazing, but I did really have to work hard to keep track of everything. The busy season for my work starts in January, so I kind of wish I had put this aside and picked it back up when things slow down a little bit but all-in-all, I recommend this.
