This book threw intense feelings of claustrophobia and desperation at me. Personally it was a bit hard to get through because of this, but still worth reading.

This book is a mindfuck of horror realism. Laurent and Therese are so astute but horrendous pieces of shit that you don't know if to admire them or despise them. It's hard to get past the midway point of the book though bc it gets so overwrought about what Therese and Laurent are going through, but that's the aim I guess. It is gripping in a way but I had to coax myself to pick up the book every time I put it down.
