I’m sorry, I read this so long ago, I don’t remember! I do remember that it was the ambiguity about the plot that I liked- there were questions not answered so maybe that’s it.

Why does Aqil even care about this, what’s his connection?

It seems like this could be fun and creepy.

LOL! But in talking about Simmons- I agree! Some of his stuff is good and some is really not good.

I think I have mixed him up with another author, as Chaon has only written a few. I’m way OFF if I’m thinking of Dan Simmons, oh my.

This is the first book of his I’ve read! Do you have any recommendations for others?

I know, right? I thought March was going to be historical fiction month for me, but I’m reading more thrillers than anything!

Thanks for the heads up on the formatting. I think I’ll put it on my tree book list at the library. I completely understand what you’re saying about ruminating on things when you’re done. it’s a different kind of appreciation, but one I enjoy.

Based on your review, this sounds pretty fantastic! I’ve never read any of his work, so thanks for putting this on my radar; the fact that you’ve included Dead Letters in the same sentence has me very intrigued. 🙂
