Chlorine is a heavy novel though, and while I might have had a good time (though good, in this context, is not entirely accurate, just the best word for the sentence lol) reading it, it is undeniably heavy. I think that it's definitely one of those stories that will be polarizing among readers, but it really, really worked for me.
