This story was interesting for me. I’m extremely claustrophobic and there was a point in which I thought I wouldn’t be able to continue with the story. Yet once Rosie and Leo started talking I slowly forgot to worry about the confined space Rosie was in. In the audiobook version, they employ a bit of a muffled effect that brought even more to the story for me. 
 
While this story doesn’t go super deep, it is much deeper than I thought it would be with so few pages. Leo and Rosie can open up about some of their fears and worries although they just met. It makes sense why that is, with the situation they are in, and it was touching in ways I didn’t expect.
