The Sleepless by Victor Manibo

4.0

Finally, finish this book as one of my entries for TBTM's OPM Song Book Prompt. Featuring Filipino song artists and authors.

As for the book, there is a mystery that is going on throughout the entire novel. As the main character experience sleeplessness, he became an unreliable narrator which made me so suspicious about the event that happen in this book.

I am also happy with how the author represents a Filipino Bisexual main character. On the other hand, there were parts that I lose my attention due to an extensive grasp of the incident in the story.

There is a lush of topics that have been tackled in this novel. From corruption, politics, and even abuse of power.

Overall, it is quite an experience. It makes me value sleep and its benefit to our body and how sleeplessness affects the way we think and we process our decision and thoughts.

Rating it as 4 star read.
