Honestly, this is way more than a 5 star for me. I don’t remember exactly where I heard about this title but it’s been on my Amazon wishlist for months. Finally, I caved and read it on KU. I read this entire book in under 4 hours and not once did I understand where it was going. There are so many twists and turns and it’s so confusing. But the author is amazing at making it an enjoyable journey.

MUST READ! I was interested just because of the title. I couldn’t put it down. It’s only 150 pages. I have ADHD. So to finish this in 2 days is a big deal. WOW!

A very interesting set of short stories; that link together. More on the darker side this book has an interesting narrative that is easy to read.

Super easy to read and get through. I've always been a fan of r/nosleep so I'm not sure why Dr. Harper flew over my radar. Regardless, I enjoyed reading this! Not a perfect book by any measure, but it was a fun romp through misadventures.

1.0

Am not gonna lie, I'm not fully sure who this book is aimed at. It reads mostly like YA? But that could be because it feels like this was written overnight by a teenager. Had some fun ideas, but executed poorly, and good lord that man is a terrible therapist
