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!

I'll never recover for the love I have for Earl.
One of my biggest pet peeves for books is when children speak like adults. The book falls into this a few times, but it's such a bizarre story and tone that I barely cared. Every content warning you can imagine, so proceed with caution.
