I’ve never had a book that I so immediately wanted to dive right back into. If you haven’t heard of it, but like a good mystery (closer to a self-contained ARG than Agatha Christie) or a good 500 page movie review, I could not recommend it more! This weekend I'm planning to do another read-through to catch things I might have missed.

“Self-contained ARG” is a great way to describe it, thank you for giving me that. I tried it twice and bounced off of it, but on the third try I finally understood what it was trying to do and devoured it, and now one of my “show off” books is an autographed hardcover copy. Great book.
