A fun concept that wears out its welcome by the end. I loved the faux-reality that this book sets up and the verbatim transcript idea is a neat one... but it wears on the reader after a while, just like reading actual unedited transcripts might. If this had been half the length, it might've been perfect; as it was, it was enjoyable but ultimately disappointing.

This was a DNF for me. Just couldn't get into the writing style. Maybe it was too capital-L-Literary for what I was seeking. I liked the idea of the premise, but the way is was written was too hard for me to follow.
