Soft Core by Brittany Newell

3.5

extra points for the modern SF lore

felt like autofiction morphing into magical realism, losing some of the initial realistic threads in favor of fantastical themes and symbolism throughout the books progression: particularly, the hallucinations coming to life, plotlines crossing paths, doppelgängers, etc.

prose was a but clumsy at times, but emotion was always intense and raw.
