challenging mysterious slow-paced

3.0

the main characters rly took the phrase “go piss girl” to a whole other level and that is all i will say on that. maybe this was a bit too abstract for me or maybe i just needed to be on psychadelics to rly grasp it. if u like queer surrealism horror-ish stuff (with lots of biology references) u may like this !

This book is a short read akin to if Richard Papen lived in the artist’s warehouse in The Secret History for the whole novel.

This is a story about a haunting. This is a story about infatuation, depression, sexuality, mushrooms. This book will pull you into its darkness and hold you there, lovingly, until it’s over. 10/10
