Not totally sure if I was able to grasp this book. A little sad, a little confusing. But overall, a goood book

i thought this was a horror novel. i was tricked into reading this cringey ass feel-good novella. stick to what u know stephen king. this was not it.

The super interesting premise reeled me in: a man slowly loses weight every day (without any actual change to his physiology) with big questions about what happens when his weight hits 0. The charming characters and plot kept me on the line for this quick read and the messages about the power of shedding our negativity and anxieties left me feeling satisfied.
