I went into reading this completely blind and loved the fact that until quite far in you're not completely certain of what's going on. The worldbuilding while subtle seemed really detailed and engaging. As you're following the POV and internal monologue of the protagonist, you get to reflect on the reliability of your own mind and how our circumstances affect what we consider to be true or possible.
