Status Updates From Figure Eight

I'm just speechless...
WTF

The twist was a twist. I did not see it coming. I just feel cheated because I couldn't have seen it coming. I had no expectation for a happy ending per se, but the ending was trash. She just gave up. It made Selah's whole journey (and consequently the book itself) a waste of time. I don't know. It just didn't fit for me.

This book was frustrating. I would have enjoyed it more if the writing was tighter or Calia gave us a bit more to work with as she developed the story. I was never really too sure of the stakes. Was something bad going to happen or did it already happen? It just felt off. I suppose if you blame the unreliable narrator, it makes it bit more sense. I'm not sure. Calia wrote the madness well, I'll give her that.

“But this is meant to happen.
All good things must come to an end.
Are you ready for the truth?
I know for damn sure that I am.
I’ve been waiting a long, long time fore this.”
