the writing was beautiful, i loved the two main characters relationship but the timeline pacing felt off & unrealistic - it ruined the immersion for me, therefore making the story less unsettling + creepy as it could've been. the blur between realistic fiction and magical realism was sometimes very confusing and could make the narrative hard to follow, other than that, i enjoyed the story. not a bad book!

- The ending is wild/confusing. I’m not sure what actually happened, and I don’t know if it was intentional.
- This had a very weird homophobic back story, which was not fun, but it was also the most lasting thing from the whole book because it was just so horrible to read.
- The thriller/scary parts of the book work well, and I really think all the characters work well on paper except for the point above and except for maybe the trans representation. I don’t think I’m the right person to comment on that.
- I really wanted this book to be better than it was, so boo.
