I really loved this book, it was eerie and unsettling and actually rather sad. It almost felt like a horror novel.

I know not everyone will vibe with this one but I loved it. Extremely creepy premise, lots of twists and turns despite it's short page count, existential asides! I picked it up on a total whim when I first got my local library card and I was not disappointed.
