I really wanted to like this more than I did, but I just found myself bored at times. I thought the twist at the end was interesting, but it just left me feeling kind of sad. I did really enjoy the flashes of Jake as a neurologist and the stories he had to tell, and I wish more of that had been written.
Idk, I feel like I need to let this marinate a little longer. The story isn’t bad, but it just felt like it never truly got started.

This wasn't much like what I expected so I was a bit disappointed, and I also felt like the pacing and plot structure could have been better, but other than those things, this book is alright.

Don't go into this thinking it's gonna be scary or very plot driven, it's more of a reflective character driven story.

It’s not a life changer, but it’s a great quick read with mystery, reflection, and coming of age.
