The narrating character at the start is pathetic, weak willed and sympathy inducing, surrounded by weird, acidic film buffs. As she is drawn into their world, and the world of the old fashioned cinema they work in, she appears to slowly lose her grip on reality and really start to fit in with the motley band of strange supporting characters.

there are a lot of random horrifying events that are never explained though, kind of frustrating but a cool touch
the last handful of chapters go so so fast especially in comparison to the rest of the book but i think it works well
i loved the writing style, despite a lot of gross and gorey details so much of it is phrased so beautifully
something i found kind of weird that may not be intentional is that the main character (and therefore me as the reader) felt so lonely, even when
idk if the author was trying to make a point about SOCIETY or just trying to write a whacky book but i do feel like it paints a horrifying picture of the capitalisation of small businesses and how it affects people within the business which is interesting but also extremely sad

Jag kan känna popcorndoften även då jag lagt boken ifrån mig och scener ur boken får mig att känna mig allmänt olustig.
Jag är imponerad och jag är glad att jag läst den men jag vill nog inte uppleva den igen.
