FUN funfuFnnfunf FUNNNN funfun. Read it in like an hour and boy, what an hour. Enjoyed every minute of it tbh. The lack of context and on the surface senseless gore made it way more fun. PLUS ITS SO SHORT!! Way to end 2022.

This novella is a crazy short read, but that doesn't make it any less upsetting. The combination of all the graphic story moments and the casual nature of their delivery (emails and IM logs) sticks in your head like the smell of spoiled meat, sits in your stomach and churns every time you think it's gone.

This book is crazy in all of the right ways. With only two characters and one crazy plot. I think about this book almost every day. What have you done today to deserve your eyes?
