3.5

I came across this at 12:30 this morning, the only tagline was, “There must be no compulsion to hide the bodies. Otherwise I’d have never found them,” and I paid the $1.99 for it immediately. Didn’t even know what else it was about. 

Ultimately, this is a spooky, horror-y short story that’s about being afraid to get older, and the act of change. It’s something mostly everyone can relate to. The cyclist plot line, however, was not something I have experience with, so I’m sure there were metaphors and analogies that simply went over my head. 

Enjoyable and quick though, personally a 3.5/5*.
