Holy crap, I cannot imagine the amount of work that went into this book. It’s not often that an author ties up every loose end I can think of, but Stuart Turton did an amazing job of bringing this all together in the end. I have no idea how he kept track of it all.

That said, as the reader, I did have a hard time keeping track of it all. I think the main problem was that I listened to this one as an audiobook, and without being able to flip back and forth it was almost impossible to remember who was who. I hope to re-read this sometime soon as a physical book so that I can fully enjoy it.

It was long and a little convoluted, but once I got a hang of the plot and the characters I really enjoyed it. It is certainly worth it to muddle through the confusion because it is all explained and tied up in the end (although a second reading would definitely do it even more justice).

I also think this would make a really great TV show!
