A weird and interesting little read. It's definitely one that will stick with me, but I'm not sure I really... liked it? Anyway, the style suited the narrative and it was definitely a quick and engaging story. I may try the sequel? I can't tell if I wanted more, and the novella format worked against it, or if I don't want more and it just wasn't my taste.
Graphic: Blood
Moderate: Murder
Minor: Child death, Torture
