beautifully written, fascinating plot. I wish there has been more development of her relationship with Cathy. the intensity of their connection felt a bit unearned.

so good. well written, weird, super endearing characters. just felt almost too short and I wish there was more time I could spend with those characters/in that world.

fairly surface level thriller/mystery. the twists were mostly genuinely unexpected, but the antagonists felt pretty cartoonish and some of the plot points/character arcs felt somewhat unfinished.

legitimately funny, clever stylistically; overall a very quick and addicting read. not much character development though. there were still some very beautiful, highlight-able passages despite being formated like a workplace chat.
