Unabridged Audiobook
Interesting. A little overly self-aware. Some bizarre decisions. I stayed interested until the end.
Narrarator is OK. Book is not well written. It's very possible to jump back and forth in time like a Tarantino film, but this book feels like all of the ideas and rough drafts were thrown on the floor, picked up how they lay and published. There certainly must be better ways to describe ones loss of self or soul than directly comparing the alien comandeering of a human body to a movie starring Johnny Depp, but I guess that would be more work than it's worth. Who needs prose anyway?There's a lot of talk about his or her uncle or brother or mother, but really no connection to any of whom might or might not be pivotal to the story. Layout roughly as follows;Prologue Part 1Part 2 - chapter 1Chapter 2 - writer's thoughts Part 3Chapter 1chapter 2 - writers thoughts. This doesn't make for some cunning or groundbreaking writing, but is messy and unpleasant. Another VIP credit in the bin. DNF
