![]() ![]() It dug itself under my skin.įinishing it gave me a heady feeling like doing something incredibly dangerous and knowing how it would end, but doing it anyway all for the thrill of it. Setting this one down and getting to the very end was a surreal experience that sent a chill down my spine. Part of hating all of them makes the novel good though. Every single one of them whines and gripes and are so fucking pretentious it is laughable. It DID manage to really capture my attention though, so I can't rate it lower I only wish the author had gotten to the point a little quicker.Īlso, holy shit, these kids are all assholes. The setup too a bit too long, you know from the beginning there is a murder and Flannery did it and all this other unimportant banal things are being talked about instead. The only reason I am not giving it four stars is that the beginning took a while for me to get into. I had guessed a bit of the twist near the end a little earlier on, but I wasn't sure if I was right or not up until they said it because of the completely unreliable narrator you really couldn't be sure of anything. This is one of the most unreliable narrators I think I have ever come across and for that alone it gets two stars right there. I do know that that 3 stars is really more like 3.5ish because while I still don't know if I liked the book, I sure as hell am glad I read it. I am not at all sure how I feel about this book yet. ![]()
