I guessed the twist ending though, so take it with a grain of salt.
(There’s a weird moment towards the end where, during a video description, which the entire book has been narrated as objective 3rd person, says “I fucking hate crying”. It’s the first time a first person statement was used in an objective transcript like that and it really threw me off, looked for hidden meaning but couldn’t find one so 🤷🏼♀️)
Edit: thought on it a bit more and this book attempts to do so many things with the plot, and on the whole it drags down the narrative. There’s a magic system that seems to be trying to take root, but it’s mostly poorly explained and confusing.
