LOL this book was a mindf*ck. I wish I 100% understood what happened by the end, I know I got parts of it but wish I knew EVERYTHING. I know this book was full of some really rich symbolism I would probably catch on another readthrough.
Some of the language was also too flowery / fanciful for me but other parts hit perfectly. Also, parts of the plot lost me in places, the dips between reality and fantasy could get confusing at times. I tend to like a slightly more straightforward story, but if you love deep prose and taking time to sit and interpret your story, you'll enjoy this book.
Overall I still liked it, I struggled with parts but I think this is an interesting read if you're fascinated by kpop groups, or parasocial relationships in general.
