Terminal Park by Gary J. Shipley

5.0

Incredible, devastating, uniquely horrific. A fascinating meditation on isolation, identity, apocalypse and humanity.
Feels like a second read thru would help reveal details I might have missed initially but I can't bear to live in this world again anytime soon

The first half of this book reads like word salad. This has interesting ideas, but I did not enjoy reading it.  My lack of enjoyment was also not as interesting as I would have hoped.

Well written and mortifying.

While a great read and certainly thought-provoking, it was a little too heavily invested with Art Theory for me to enjoy much. It certainly got me thinking though.
