A+ on creativity. Truthfully haven't read anything like it. The book was a true tome though. I'm not sure I would have gotten through it if I hadn't been on vacation. It's an *active* book - there are points where I had bookmarked three different sections with my fingers in order to flip back and forth to get the whole point. There are many codes/riddles within to try to figure out, and I'm sure I didn't figure out all of them. I almost wish the movie the book is about was real. I liked the parts about the documentary more than the Johnny Truant narrative. I understand they're semi-linked or related, but his voice got exhausting.

There were some parts that gave me goosebumps, but the ending fell particularly flat compared to the rest of the novel. An adventure, though. For sure.
