Slow start and I didn’t love the ending but the 100-150 pages in the middle were 10/10.

challenging dark emotional mysterious slow-paced

1.5

There's two, maybe three good story's hiding in this. I'll tell you right now a spoiler, the Get's the big bad disease you read about in the blurbs, has NOTHING to do with the story. It's useless and could be excised, but that's the first good, wasted story idea. If this had been a character driven tale about the Gets, boy would I have given it five stars. The second good story is the Ambrosia, but it devolves into a mishmash of horror tropes. Together, it fails to land.

I could not put this book down. It was unnerving and claustrophobic. I was a bit lost at some parts, but it just added to the ambiance of confusion and disorientation the MC was experiencing.
