This just wasn't for me. It's mysterious and tense and has a dreamlike quality that fits into the story. However, I didn't care much for the character work, and the twists at the end didn't feel fully explored.    This felt more like a surreal literary novel than science fiction.  As a big fan of sci-fi, I was a little disappointed in the motivations and explanations. The focus of the book was more about the fuzzy illusory flow than about the facts or events. I can see how that would appeal to other readers, but it left me disappointed.
