Being so for real, did ANYONE read this after it was written, before it was published. There were so many inconsistencies that made reading this far too frustrating. If it was supposed to be that way to like, idk, show her mental state or be kind of nightmareish it did not come across for me.

Very interesting conceit. The intersection of feminism and recent divorce is an excellent use case for the horror genre and I like the specific way Hightower uses horror classics like late night car rides, caves, a mysterious man, etc to draw out the underlying themes she’s getting at. I think this actually could have been served by being a bit longer and hitting more pointedly on some of descriptions of what was happening to Addy and her background interest in horror. I also think the Mads background felt slightly disconnected from the main plot themes and some more work there would have better served the story. But I was engrossed and enjoyed it greatly
