Really interesting read, great translation - anyone familiar with the dark reality of online content moderation wouldn't be surprised, but if you're not familiar, this is a short work of fiction but we'll-researched

This is a super uncomfortable read and then it just ends. The conflict we start with and the conflict we end with could be two different books entirely, and neither is resolved.

i’m not sure why but i thought this was nonfiction. i think this book lacked a general plot or much substance. i’m not really sure what the point of this book is

dark reflective medium-paced

2.0

Interesting premise but the premise got a bit lost and replaced with analysing a toxic relationship. Also really abrupt ending. Not a bad read as less than 150 pages, but not really the book I expected from its blurb
