challenging dark reflective slow-paced

4.0

I really liked this book in terms of its themes and the way it plays with the idea of insanity and reality but i thought it could have been scarier- it felt more like a fever dream than a horror fever dream and I kind of wish it felt more gripping.
none the less, fun to read would definitely recommend

there is a tw for attempted rape/trauma from csa so be warned

It started good and scary/gory but then got weird…  I was hoping he would pull it all together so I kept with it but I don't feel like he did. I also was left a bit confused about something he tried to clarify and felt like I had questions. I feel like it basically ruined the good beginning part... which is too bad as it started out pretty good and scary.
