Impossible to put down. With the images and the mysterious story, this reads more like a movie, similar to Parasite or The Ring. There isn’t a happy ending here, but I’m so inclined to re-read it (kind of like how you would rewatch a movie) because there’s so much detail, it definitely takes more than one read to absorb it all.
