Interesting topic but it fel  unfinished. I actually got to the last page and was confused where the rest of the book was? I understand its a novella, and short books are great, but I feel that it ends abruptly and prematurely, seemingly without intention. Other than that, I found the character to voice to be strong and the plot to develop well. These two aspects benefited the

reveal of sexual coercion

quite well, while majntaing the blurry uncertainty of the setting & storyline. I would have loved to delve further into how the main character - either growth or devolution.

An intriguing character study focused on the ways we train ourselves to look away from the unbearable. The prose is an easy read, and the narrator's voice is conversational and casual, but I found the story slow despite the novella length, which was also too short to really provide closure. I went into the book expecting a supernatural or surprise element of some sort, and was disappointed when there wasn't really one; the twist was not surprising to me. All in all, 2.5 stars
