Absolution by Jeff VanderMeer

I liked Cass. I didn't actually hate the Lowry part, but I don't think I was invested enough to pick out
the alternate-timeline bits which other people have. In THEORY absolutely my thing but I am simply not invested enough in Whitby to care what he's doing. Also, just personal preference but I am sad Area X is an alien thing, I quite liked when characters suggested it was just an old forgotten part of the world waking up.
I respect that leaving unanswered questions is the whole vibe of Area X but I would just like to know 😆.
