emilytade's review
4.0
i received this book through a goodreads drawing/giveaway.
It was much shorter than I expected! I felt like I had just started to get into the story when I realized I was at the halfway point of the book. I probably read this book in less than two hours, which is unusual for me.
I enjoyed the book, but honestly I felt like I was reading a very everyday spiral of what life is like, and there really wasn't a whole lot for me to dig into. I think that was the point of is book though, to be a short read that made a point. Unfortunately I feel like the point almost defeated itself because in order for the author to say "no one is truly alone" he had to make up an imaginary being that just happened to be following this particular author around. Which means, the rest of us who are going through what the main character is dealing with actually are alone.
Still unsure how I feel about the book, because just as I was becoming invested in the main character, the book ended.
Enjoyable, but not a thriller. This book was written to make a point.
