I enjoyed this one! Reminded me of the Sylvia Plath poem about the fig tree. I enjoyed the thought experiment and the story generally, a bit slow in the middle but not bad.

I loved it. It has a similar premise to The Midnight Library but I liked it much better than ML. I really wasn’t sure how it would wrap up and I think it was the perfect ending. I loved that even though there was mention of Lauren’s “type”, by and large she didn’t have one, physically or personality wise. I think that’s a good message. I also liked how it started small and then… escalated. Would read again, may even purchase though I’m generally a library lady.

All of the items listed are extremely minor and I even hesitated to put some on but if someone is triggered, I want them to know.
