I'm not sure I'm going to remember this book six months from now and I'm not sold on the plausibility of the ending but on the other hand every single time I put this book down it was with great reluctance and I could not wait to get back to it, and I stayed up late to finish it. It was pretty gripping in the moment, is what I'm saying, even if I am skeptical of its staying power.
