Very intense but a worthy read. Vivid and clear descriptions that made you appreciate what really went on and also realize there is likely no point at which you will really understand it.
I did really struggle with all of the names. ChatGPT plus the chart in the front (pulled from the Libby E-book version) helped.

I really enjoyed this. It was cute and fun to read. I enjoyed the author's voice and ideas. It was a tad predictable at times that didn't detract from the enjoyment.

I enjoyed the second half much more than the first. It was really slow going with way too much set up. Also, a highly unlikeable protagonist. In fact, I didn't like the protagonist, his wife, or his girlfriend. I did enjoy his lawyer (Raymond?) and would read more with him.
While not as bad as The Confession (DNFed in 2024), there was a certainly political "bent" towards the writing around false convictions. I agree with the author's point but also felt it was a bit heavy-handed.
I also struggled a bit with "hackers save the day" trope that was critical to the end. It was a lame narrative device that felt staged. In fact, the whole resolution and ending felt staged!
