Unworld is the kind of novel that doesn’t wait for you to settle in—it throws you headfirst into the middle of other people’s lives and challenges you to find your footing. And honestly? That’s what made it so compelling. Jason Greene’s writing is utterly immersive—clean, confident, and emotionally precise. He doesn’t rely on flashy plot devices or spoon-fed exposition. Instead, he trusts the reader to dive in and absorb the tension, the trauma, and the raw humanity of his characters.

I loved how the story unfolded through fragments and interactions, how we’re given glimpses into the lives of people who feel painfully real. There’s a quiet intensity to Greene’s prose that reminded me of literary fiction at its finest—every sentence feels deliberate, but never forced.

What stood out most for me was the internal monologue. It felt natural and intimate, like we weren’t just observing the characters—we were living inside their heads. Their fears, regrets, obsessions, and fleeting hopes all came through in subtle, powerful ways. I found myself rereading passages just to sit with the rhythm of his thoughts.

While it may not be for everyone (the pacing and structure might feel untraditional), Unworld is a book that rewards patience and attention. It’s unsettling and grounded at the same time, and I’ll be thinking about its quiet weight for a while.

Highly recommend for readers who love layered, introspective, character-driven fiction with a literary edge.
