I could not put this book down! I was shocked to see it only have 2.95 rating. I'm not sure what book they were reading. Chloe's writing reminds me a lot of [a:Ottessa Moshfegh|3276202|Ottessa Moshfegh|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1651525567p2/3276202.jpg]'s style.

This book made Australia sound boring. Sounds like a feat to me, considering they have kangaroos and duckbilled platypuses. Platypusi?

A gothic fever-dream, filled with sex, murder and paranoia - I couldn't put it down.
