I don't think I've ever read a book where even as I finished it, I'm asking myself, what did I just read? And why did I love it so much?
At times dark, disturbing, yet funny and satirical, it's a look at the ridiculousness of higher education. It is a story that gives a whole new meaning to open to interpretation and unreliable narrarator. Even now, having finished the book, I couldn't tell you what was real, and what may or may not have been all in Smackie's head. A mix of the Craft meets mean girls with a touch of Dark Academia thrown in, I couldn't put the book down.
