It’s all in the second person, which i got used to but, ugh
it’ll probably make an OK movie
it reminded me a lot of Jeff Noon who I enjoy more for this kind of thing
Being set in and about Sri Lanka and Sri Lanka politics was really neat
it’s pretty brutal in some places, which I don’t get down with
the twist was annoying
the last 20 pages were not needed
21st book of the year: “The Seven Moons of Maali Almeida”, by Shehan Karunatilaka
A friend posted that they’d just read a book that they think might be the best book they’d ever read, and it was this one. 4, 3, 2, 1 was listed for a Booker and this one won the prize? OK, I’ll try it.
I really wanted to like it more than I did, and the second act really flows well, but I had a hard time finishing it, today, finally. It’s right up my alley in lots of ways. v0v
