Jive by Les Bohem

The fact that this storyline follows an inmate who was incarcerated during a pandemic that killed a third of the world was interesting. He went in because he committed fraud, only to come out and find another way to convince people he was redeemed and here to help again. 
I got lost once and had to backtrack but it was different to hear things from a “con man’s” POV. Selling snake oil in the midst of chaos. It’s completely true and spot on. That ending though…

Interesting concept used to explore several facets of human nature. It was well conceived.

This book is simply too short for the story it is trying to tell. The idea is interesting and most of it wholy believable, that being said it is far too rushed.

I really enjoyed the world that was created here and the story was good and well thought out but still felt a little rushed. I feel like there was enough nuance in here to comprise a whole novel but I didn’t get any of the richness, only concise redux. It was still a great read but left me wanting to so much more.
