I Am Pilgrim by Terry Hayes
4.0
Edit: I feel asleep writing the review (shocking, I know), and Im quite embarrassed about that gibberish. I’m sober three years now, and had flashbacks when I saw the likes and comment I had received, when I woke up. Happy to say, it is not the case this time.
Back to the book. I enjoyed it and I I consider it one of the better espionage books, I have read in awhile. A first for me is, I listened to the audiobook simultaneously with reading on my Kindle. I enjoyed that, a lot more than I had thought.
