Pete Hautman: invisible

If you are looking for an unreliable narrator--this is the text for you. Though, is the narrator really unreliable?

I was actually creeped out and disturbed by this book--something I wasn't really expecting. One of my classmates said that this was "Shin's story" (Shin from godless--who I always wanted to know what happened--what his dealio back-story was) but it totally was not.

The cover is actually exceptional and dead-on with the inherent importance of the struggle of the main character.

Well-written, much darker than godless, and you really never get the impression that you "get" the story--whose truth is truth?
