Really cool concept but overall the story was meh. The story probably gets better/makes more sense on reread but the ending still doesn’t connect all the dots so there’s not much more story to get out of it except for appreciation of hindsight.

[Elaine Bickle Perkins Bazydlo · Rating 5 out of 5]

Complex. Intriguing. Rewarding. I love a challenge and I love puzzles. There are multiple stories here and I was hooked by all of them.

This book was definately different to read and I have not come across one like, either before or after. It has a story within a story as there are notes in the margins between two characters along with the main story. It took time to puzzle many parts of it out but it was worth the effort. I do not read book multiple times, but I may go back to this one as I am sure I missed many of the subtle plot points. If you like books that are meant to be puzzled out, you would like this book.

A good different kind of read, where I liked it, it did have its challenges. At times the notes were kind of hard to follow, and you really have to understand how that part of the story is being told to get into it.

A story within a story within a story including two more stories. What a beautiful concept, brought to life so thoughtfully. I have never seen so much effort being put into an immersive book. Absolutely loved it

Such a unique experience of a book. I enjoyed that the story required you to piece itself together with context clues. And also keeping track of multiple stories at once was fun! Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a different read outside their comfort zone!
