Agree. Near the end of the book I was starting to skim pages

Yeah, the end was in desperate need of another editing pass. He takes you by the head, smashes your face into the ground, and then drags you for half a mile.

Anyone who gets that far into the book doesn't need to have their hand held that much. I get that it's the entire point of the book, but everything until this point has been a challenging read.

Personally, I think it might have been interesting to rewrite the whole thing such that conclusion is ambiguous.
