Creepy, compelling, and claustrophobic. I feel conflicted about my rating. Part of me wants to rate this higher, and another part of me is so horrified by what I just finished reading that I kind of hate it a bit. This weird book takes an extremely relatable portrayal of a young person struggling with the meaningless of over our insipid lives, and distorts it by introducing this sci-fi horror concept of a reality tv show set on an inhospitable alien planet. The result is a seriously bizarre and fascinating, yet disurbing read.
