Wow. This book ended with a bang.
Proust ("Young Marcel") does not hold back in regard to his feelings, showing us uncensored jealousy and unmatched honesty that, although it reveals the toxic traits of his character and, let's be honest, makes him unlikeable to an extent, also lets readers get deep into the thought processes that dictate his behaviors and lead to the many self-inflicted sufferings that are drawing the plot along.
