Somehow in fewer than 30 pages it imbues this feeling of dread and stress from the main character's mental illness that only continues to exponentially worsen through the story from her husband's "treatment," even as she begs him for what she knows would actually help if he'd only listen.
It's a dark little tale of warning that's horrifying in its relatability, for it could happen to anyone under the right (or wrong) circumstances.
Definitely recommend taking the time to read, but only when your own mental health is stable, for there ARE a lot of mentions of anxiety, rampant depression, and eerie imagery.

I thought this book was short and sweet, and it was a really interesting read! It’s only 21 pages long, and if you’re interested in fast-paced psychological horror, this is definitely the book for you.
