I found the book very frustrating to read and gave up no more than four chapters in.

One of the two protagonists is incredibly anxious and has really low self-esteem, constantly being caught in a loop of negative self-talk. I am generally very open to books with introspective characters and characters with mental health problems, but this guy occupies a fairly important position politically and he seems barely able to think of himself on that level. It's partially explained on a narrative level, but still.

Most of his internal monologue is spent berating himself. It's to such a degree that it put me in an unhealthy mental space for a couple of days, and I had to drop the book to get out of it. So if you're a highly anxious person, I suggest going in very carefully on this one.
