First introduction to the author. The writing style immediately pulls you in. So effortlessly unsettling. It felt like there was a sinister draw cloud around me as I was reading it.
3 short stories and a quick read (especially cuz she draws you in one line in). A little bit Murakami in a way where she draws you into the human consciousness really fast.
