Perfect Clarity

This isn't a very good book, but I loved it. The writing is very good and I loved all of the ways that it really feels like a story. It's not glamorized or made better, it really feels like a story we are happening to hear rather than a story written by an author. But, like I said, it's not a very good book. All the plot happens at the end, and there honestly isn't the greatest foreshadowing, it's pretty easy to pick up on. But there's a moment, just one moment of perfect clarity, that makes the book absolutely worth reading. Everything lines up and for a moment it feels like you're dying. It's underwhelming before and after, but for that one moment everything is exactly perfect.
