not as bad as the other twain i've read but it does really hammer in its themes, to the point where it felt like the first couple chapters already revealed everything that would follow. the last two~three chapters were the strongest for me and i do think i would've enjoyed this for its exploration of identity  as a short story maybe..though that would take away from the catharsis of the buildup(and crash) so i can't say that's definitive
