I really liked how the character lives slightly intermingled and how it left with this feeling that even slight encounters can leave big impacts.
Also I went in blind. Didn't even realize it was a contemporary with a slight speculative element. Now looking at the synopsis it seems to say way to much? Glad i went in blind. Even tho this isnt the type of story I would normally go for.
