I love the writing style and the focus on fame and how that encapsulates a person’s existence but I was disappointed about how the Carles story was left

A wonderful mix of mystery, thrills, and social commentary. I felt as the book went on it strayed away from liked so much about it and shied away from delivering a strong ending.
