I had a couple gripes with the writing, mainly that, in my opinion, it fell a bit too into the "tell, not show" category, which felt deeply ironic and out-of-place for a book so centered around quality literature. Additionally, there seemed to be a lack of commas after introductory clauses, which made the book somewhat challenging to read out loud, especially with how long-winded some of the sentences were (not sure if this is just a problem with the Libby version of the book).

It was still good. Still interesting. Still well-written and I still wanted to see how everything would unfold even though what would unfold was already pretty clear.
All-in-all an enjoyable read. I'd recommend it if you don't mind knowing the ending early on and just wanna be taken for a good ride.
