oh my god

This story may haunt me for life! Not in a "oooo spooky way," but in a "I may never find a book so well crafted and complex that speaks to my soul like this" way. Susanna Clark is brilliant; they don't make them like her anymore.

this book was an actual mindfuck and i loved every second of it. the main character is so filled with whimsy and i relished every moment of it!!!!!
