I’m not totally sure what to make of this book. I think I read it too slowly as was reading it with someone else across several months. It certainly has an intriguing premise and writing style, and the author has a real talent for noticing the small details of the world and the people in it.

It seems like we got so much character work and im not sure why. I was so tired of reading yet another passage about Miri’s mom. The ending was a little unsatisfying as it left a lot of things in the dark. Like what was the eye in the deep ocean attached to?? I wanna know. Overall it was too slow paced for my liking.
The sea imagery was beautiful, and i was only interested in Leah’s characters tbh.

This book was SO SLOW. The prose was bloated and exhausting to read, it killed any sense of dread or tension building that I need in a horror book. Slow burns can be scary and deliver, but this book is too waterlogged with meaningless flashbacks to even get a spark going. You get no answers by the end and the books end on a whimper. Such a disappointment.

Interesting genre combo. Didn’t even realize I was close to the end of the book as I was listening. Not exactly sure how I am interpreting the different pieces of the story, but I know I was entranced.
