A supremely creepy fever dream of a book. The one criticism I have is that it could have played with the fear of the deep ocean more, as the horrific scenes felt disconnected from its setting at times. But wow, I couldn’t look away. I had my hand over my mouth for most of the book, and it made me cry at one point. The descriptions of things in the dark and body horror are truly, truly horrifying. I’ll be sleeping with the lights on from now on, and God knows I’m not going into a submarine any time soon!

For instance, the plague 'Gets, which essentially causes Alzheimer's disease, initially drew my attention and seemed significant. A good part of the book was focused on it, setting up a strong motive and adding tension. Yet, after the first part, the plague was barely mentioned, with occasional off-hand mentions. It appeared to be an important element but ultimately seemed useless in the grand scheme of things.
