This book was totally crazy. I think I liked it a lot, but I think it will stay with me for awhile. I am writing this as I finished it, but the last 50 pages haven’t hit me yet. It takes a TURN.

Eddie is a young man with Dissociative Identity Disorder. He is also adopted. He is also bi-racial, his biological father was black and biological mother was Swedish. This has a heavy theme and symbolism about identity. I listened to the audiobook which I thought may be difficult to follow but it was not, at all. The audiobook narrator did a wonderful job of voicing his different personalities and inner dialogue.

He also has kind of thing for his brother’s fiancé, Lucy. I didn’t love the narrator’s voice for Lucy. Side note: As a woman I absolutely HATE when the men in my life repeat what I said back to them in a “mocking” tone, I find it completely unnecessary and misogynistic. And because of this I usually have a hard time with male narrators switching voice to a female character. But honestly, what are you going to do. But I digress.

The story is fascinating; it’s the definition of unreliable narrator.

But the last few turns- wow. I wasn’t even close. I guarantee it will surprise you.

Thanks to @netgalley and @brilliancepublishing for the audio ARC. Opinions are my own.
