The schtick got old after the second time tbh but I enjoyed how unique and increasingly disturbing the sections were. There was especially a scene that reminded me so much of the 1989 film "Society" that was absolutely delightful.

If you liked The Bone Clocks you'll like this. If you haven't read The Bone Clocks, read this first, it's shorter and is a straighter road to Mitchell's world.
