This book was “not for me.” But could be a good read for someone who likes horror, the most unreliable narrator I’ve ever encountered and if you enjoy being completely unsure what the hell you just read.

Such a weird book, I struggle to explain it. I truly wonder the point of this book because it doesn't ever fully reach a point really. The end comes and you kind of have the reaction of oh ok I get it but why is that interesting or entertaining? I struggled to finish it but if you really love horror you might enjoy it maybe?

This was so strange and unexpected, but gahdamn that ending made me feel some things. The writing was very vibrant. It was filled with so many metaphors, making the twists rather unexpected.
