meganpkin's review against another edition
Oh and in 2023 not having characters respect eachothers choosen preferred names felt unnecessary as a character flaw for Smith when we already know he is racist, bigoted and misogynistic, we get it. I spent alot of time telling the oages 'I get it'. However, this might make a good thriller tv show because it would cut out the option for a pontificating inner dialogue.a shorter version would have been better, my opinion.

A mix of locked room mystery/ The Truman Show/ Wreck/ Black Mirror/Then There Were None and Lord of the Flies. If Trauma Porn, Gaslighting and Father issues was a book. Short snappy chapters but terrible ending if I wasn't reading this on my laptop I would've flung it across the room.mtnest's review against another edition
