so-soDespite all the acclaim surrounding this book, I could not muster one iota of sympathy or even empathy for the main character/narrator. I found the narrator to be unreliable but I‘m not sure if the author intended to use that storytelling method. I feel the intent was the main character was narrating as a confidential confession, but the ease with which he lied to friends and casual acquaintances made his confession feel hallow.
Awk_Word_Smith I slogged through hoping for some sort of redemption for any of the characters, but none came as the wealthy cast was let off the hook repeatedly and the ending fell flat as another character escaped any amount of responsibility for their actions throughout the book. 2d
