This is kind of funny, but also very weird. I was hoping for a more spooky atmosphere right off the bat. I might come back to it, but I'm moving on to something else for spooky season.

A quick, fun read. Suitably creepy. Reminded me of Ghostwritten most of all Mitchell's books.

Novela "a piñon fijo" de Mitchell que, como siempre, me ha gustado mucho, siendo una novela mucho mas accesible que anteriores. Mientras dure la formula...

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.
