I am not sure how to feel about this one. I basically listened to this in two days because I was travelling. The first two thirds or so are really amazing, but then it gets kind of weird and I am not sure if that was really necessary. Moreover the book was definitely not subtle in most of its themes, and I am not sure if it really made me think by just so clearly telling me everything. I did enjoy reading from the POV of a unreliable and unlikable narrator.
