5.0
the writing is powerful and evocative, and i think i’m going to struggle to find something better written than this.
i’ll conclude this with this thought: the really scary parts of this aren’t what happens to ada (those are clearly EXTREMELY depressing and deserve TWs in their own right) but rather ada’s developing and deteriorating psychology.
terrifying. i’ll be hard-pressed to find a psychological thriller better done than this.

The trauma and transition of Ada make you feel scared, and angry, and mad. I could read this book again and again losing myself in that raw feeling.
