Annette Montez Kolda asked this question about Pretend I'm Dead:
When I started reading "Pretend I'm Dead", I right away was drawn to a character/narrator with mental health issues. As a writer myself, I recognized the "unreliable narrator" that they teach you about in English classes. But as I read the book (which I loved!) I realized that Mona really wasn't unreliable. She was narrating her world as she experienced it. Was the narrator unreliable?
Amanda Howland She seems to have insight into her subjectivity, so I would not say any more unreliable than a typical close third.
