It has unhinged fetish posts that are reminiscent of the real Internet, and it plays with the structure of a novel in ways that are meta without breaking the story.
The author builds moments of genuine tension that I rarely feel in a novel. The down side is that the author frequently undercut these moments too.
My favorite aspect was that the book is very topical. Most fiction is afraid to be set in the world we live in, identifiable and dated. It must always be timeless unless it's a period piece. This book is very identifiably the world I inhabit and see every day.
Overall solid and I look forward to seeing what other books the author writes.

I just couldn’t really move past it, usually I can stomach the more extreme things but something about the way these things were written made it a less enjoyable experience. I want to read the author’s other book and see if I enjoy it more, because she has talent! If you want to read this book PLEASE listen to the trigger warnings, even if you’re an enjoyer of the more extreme sides of horror.

i personally thought that the moral of the story was a bit too on the nose (

yes, it is heavy on content warnings, but i promise it’s a book worth reading (if you can handle it — please take care)chefboyavi's review
