I thought this was a very strange book., but not in an interesting way, just in how it was presented to the reader. I know that most of the book is supposed to be confusing, because the main character of herself is confused because it’s going to area x, and discovering “the brightness” - but for the most part her confusion never really clears and I was left unsatisfied with what she experienced.
