Finally got around to reading this book, that had a lot of buzz when it first came out. This is a serviceable thriller, and a definite page turner, which is not to say it doesn't have issues. I can't say a lot about it without venturing in to heavy spoiler territory, but I will say I disliked the ending, even though it makes a sort of sense in the universe of the book itself.
Here are some random words and phrases that sum up my feelings about this book:
- Unreliable narrator
- Clever
- Too long
- Mixed feelings
- Twisted
- Loose ends
- Diabolical
- Plot twists
- Ultimately unsatisfying
I managed to avoid the movie but I think I'll watch it now out of curiosity. Mixed feelings.
