I’m trying not to give spoilers but I suppose there are MILD SPOILERS below. These are more notes for myself to help me work through how I feel about this book.
Eddie 💔
Bit Dolly/Emma Jane esque. Didn’t like that. Don’t appreciate that lifestyle. Main character is intolerable (but that’s the point.)
Did appreciate the flip of the usual predatory/violent/dangerous/ruthless and detached narrative.
Trauma? Mental health?
Enjoyed the did she/didn’t she?
Was impressed by what seemed like a very sudden/surprising shift about 2/3 through, which in retrospect was actually hinted at.
The use of the name, the cat and the bell (Schrödinger, much?) were clever and subtle but not too subtle.
