This book was basically the David Fincher movie The Game/The Truman Show where the reveal is that the entire situation the MC has been in for the duration of the book was a setup- an elaborate "art piece" orchestrated by the bitter director of a play the MC (a theater critic) maligned in a review.
I didnt see this reveal coming, but it also wasn't some shocking twist. The ending just sort of happened to me.
This book was okay. Not super exciting, and the MC was not very likeable.
3 stars.
