To be entirely honest with everyone, I have mixed feelings about this book.
On the one hand, I can appreciate a piece of literature that is unique and so profoundly creative that I have to give credit to the author for its invention.
On the other, I found the format and narration of this novel to be so incredibly confusing that it detracted from my overall enjoyment of the book.
So while I can appreciate that this book is absolutely worthy of critical acclaim - I cannot wholly say that I enjoyed it. George Saunders is an excellent writer, and I have not read anything like this before, but I'll tell you this, Lincoln in the Bardo is the type of book that you will love or greatly dislike.
