I saw this book on TikTok and I found the premise to be interesting. I think Angie Kim wrote a really cool book underscoring how little we really understand about communicating with one another, or rather how much stock we put into certain forms. I was a little dissatisfied with the ending, the whole book as an undertone of a thriller but ends in such a way that makes me a tad annoyed. Overall a really great read and I would recommend it to others, just not as a true thriller.
