Oh I loved this. It was twisted. It was surreal. It was weird. I found myself wanting to know more and hoping the protagonist put herself in danger to do so. 😬 Normally I’m like, “no don’t go in there” but this book was so intriguing I kept hoping she’d go where she shouldn’t.

I will have to rate this book at a later date. I both hated it and yet was addicted to it. I'm not sure what I just read and need time to digest this book.

Difficult to review.. 
The writing itself Is very enjoyable and descriptive. And then u get the the point of the dmstory whe half of it doesn't make sense. Most of it reads as a fever dream. Which is supposedly the meaning of the book but also I have had so many toughts and speculation which most of them were true and not true at the same time. And I am still confused slightly.  Maybe have to reread the ending.  Seemed lightly si.ple and at the same time not.? 

Just writing my toughts after finishing the book. Fresh in my mind... what happened actually to certain characters?  Where they actually real? What about the ones I actually tought that were? Many questions that were left unawnsered maybe for better reason.

The main character seemes ir is hHighworth half of the book. The is some animal abuse or and definetly death Involved. Cults and hive mind mentality. Most likely main character feeling deterioration and delusion.

Not 100% sure what I just read but I mostly enjoyed it. Themes of the power creativity, the performance of femininity and connection, and the danger of isolation. I didn’t agree with some of the critique of the traditional femininity, but Samantha’s refusal to perform in the final chapter was satisfying.
