I'm not sure if I like it : I do not know if I enjoy it as much as I should.It is a short fiction book with a complex world, tons of information about the structure, political interests, social matters, cultural complexities, and - surprise, surprise - mental illness. I was, definitely, cheering for the wrong person. (or not) The end was unexpected.I thought things would end as expected. And it was shocking. It's been a while sinve I've seen a main character as unreliable as this one.Another point - that can be me overreacting - is some writing choices. Uncle Brando jokes, some sarcastic ideas and way of saying things were obviously his words.I felt like Mary was writing the scene and Brando showed up saying ”add a SURE! here” ”let's row D&D dices” ”finish this with a 'yeaaie'!” That was the feeling.Overall, it is a decent and sufficient engaging story with more layers than a 200- pages usually offer.
