Wow!!

Such an interesting and creative book. This book is told through the perspective of a gecko living in a man’s house who creates pasts for clients. I enjoyed the characters and finding out more and more about the narrator! The prose was refreshing after the simplicity of Dante & Aristotle sequel.
