    A rating most definitely not based on quality but on vibes. The whole time I was basically beefing because this was just so copy/paste storylines from other beloved novels but at the same time, I was engaged. I did blow through it, and unfortunately I kind of want to continue just to see what happens. I likely will come back and update this rating when I’m not invested anymore

    My first Backman book and it was a banger! I gotta say this one is fantastic on audio as well, the narrator did a fantastic job of giving distinct voices to all the characters w/out it feeling like she was doing too much. My favorite part of this book was how interwoven everything was. Every sentence had a point, every event bled into the next. The plot twists def got me because I was not expecting murder-mystery level twists and turns for a literary fiction 😅 . My takeaway is just to be kind to one another, you never know the weight of your words and actions that can have on a specific person at a certain point in their life.

    I feel like this could have had better overall structure, felt unorganized IMO. I also wish it dove more into the psychology of WHY cultish language can affect people the way it does vs this is how cults get ya!

    The beginning was a bit slow for me but wow does Part 2- end have such an emotional punch. So many moments made my heart ache. Our main character, James, had me in a constant state of paranoia for his whole journey but his tenacity and grit is so captivating. “I am the angel of death, come to offer sweet justice in this night. I am a sign. I am your future. I am James.” 😮‍💨😮‍💨

    2.5 ⭐️ Why is everyone so horny? So many instances of instalove 😒 Why is everyone weirdly obsessed with the MC? Why the heck are all these people submitting writing pieces for their “POV” to the story and who would truthfully admit how shitty of a person they are? Was there supposed to be ANYTHING likeable about any of these characters? The writing and narration were fine, but I just wished I gave a damn about any of these characters but you got a psycho control freak, a cheater, 2 shitty “best friends”, and a love-obsessed fan.
