The writing is pretty good. But, that's about where my positivity ends. I really struggled to finish this book. I heard such good things about this one and I could not figure out why I hated it so much. It's not because the story is weird, or the main character is a terrible whiny person who I was annoyed by the whole time.. 
But I feel like I finished it and was left with a WTF did I just read taste in my mouth. I got absolutely nothing out of this book at all and I wish I hadn't wasted my time.

Wtf did I just read? Yes I finished it, but at what cost? The main character feels schizophrenic from the get-go and all the relationships she has make you uncomfortable. Then she joins a pretentious writing cult where they make animal sacrifices??? I understand that it is commentary on female relationships but everyone sucked.

I'm just very confused about this but I still had a good time and it was really compelling and creepy and had lots of inhale deeply parts. I definitely want to reread it in the future, to see if I can pick the clues throughout

because um her friend being a swan/not real??? Had me gagged

Very tense and creepy most of the time. The whole thing sort of creeps up on you and leaves you with this overall feeling of dread. I was going to give it a 4 since a lot of the plot beats felt predictable but some of the newer elements introduced in the second half/last third and the ending made me bump it up a lot. It felt a LOT like dark academia Heathers with heavy influences from a particular classic novel that gives a lot away if I mention it.

This was a really odd book, and I don't mean that in a bad way. 

I really loved some of the writing, especially the way some things are described or the vivid similes used. I read this really quickly and that was refreshing after my previous, long and emotional wrecking reads.

I reckon I have a fairly decent understanding of the story, but I do know that I could definitely delve deeper into it. However, I'm happy just having gone along for the ride and I don't really feel that compelled to dive into the contents of the book that much. I enjoyed the freaky, girly, strangeness to it and it did its job to fill me with such an odd feeling at times.

I didn't really understand the line at the end with the mud but that's ok.

Oh I loved this. It was twisted. It was surreal. It was weird. I found myself wanting to know more and hoping the protagonist put herself in danger to do so. 😬 Normally I’m like, “no don’t go in there” but this book was so intriguing I kept hoping she’d go where she shouldn’t.
