This book is weird as fuck and immediately upon finishing it I flipped back to the beginning to start again with added context. Not sure I’ll read all the way through a second time but I definitely recommend rereading at least the beginning! It’s such a weird little thing, an object itself as much as a novel, really, because of the unconventional way it’s told and the very limited way that information is given. It was engaging and off putting snd interesting and I just loved that I got to read something that really shook up my typical experience.

I think I'm just not deep enough for ths book - I read it easily, but didn't really connect with it in the way many others seem to have done.
