Why read it?

1 author picked The Sketchbook as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

This book opened my eyes to my own obsessive need to find the truth. The main character is a seemingly ordinary person; however, you quickly get the sense that everything is not what it seems. It is easy to get drawn into the arc of the story, which appears simple only on the surface.

There was a lot of uncertainty that captured my imagination. The author did a masterful job of keeping the mystery flowing. This led to an outcome I was pleasantly surprised by. A well-written quick read that leaves you satisfied. 

From Sam's list on questioning reality.
