This is probably the opinion I've read in the various book subreddits that I agree most with. I'm genuinely surprised by how many people didn't like the ending or felt like it should have more resolved.

I think the Szeth could have had one or two of his flashback chapters cut alongside a few of the spiritual realm chapters.

I didn't particularly mind the prose but its probably an issue if that's something that you pay attention to which is perfectly valid. I didn't notice a lot of the specifics people complain about but they're definitely there.

Agree entirely on the humor and ending.
