Seguindo minha regra de fazer review negativa em português pra ser o mais discreta possível expressando o meu desgosto.
Não deu pra curtir esse livro. Alternei entre me sentir confusa e desinteressada. Só queria que terminasse logo. Não consegui sentir medo nem curiosidade pra saber do desenrolar da trama. Não me conectei com os personagens, desgostei de todos, achei o Thiago um chato de galocha.

Wowoweewow. Okay. First-- I loved how this was written in a 2nd person POV, in a way where Thiago was narrating to his beloved, dead wife. It gave the whole narration a more intimate feel, with the grief at the loss of his wife being so incredibly palpable. Admittedly, even after reading the blurb on the back of the book, I didn't expect it in any way to go the direction it went. But in no such terms did this story disappoint. From start to finish, I felt as if the book was unraveling, becoming increasingly more wicked and eerie and creepy. Honestly, I'm still not sure what to make of the ending, of what exactly this entity was that followed Thiago. The ending left me scratching my head, but in no way was it unsatisfying; I'd love to read others' interpretations and conclusions that they've made. This book was unlike anything I've read before, unexpected, and I hope to read more from this author!

The horror elements of this book were so good but ultimately the main character was annoying and unsympathetic to me.
felt very The Shining in some ways. im sort of surprised at myself for liking it; first half is a very candid display of grief over the death of a spouse, 2nd half is that but with more torment (of various sorts). i wish i could make more sense of the ending, but its not detracting from my experience at all and its a book that i feel fine with only theorizing what the ending means
"You were you and I was me and there was this thing between us."
