I LOVED this book. I consumed it in one sitting, haven’t stopped thinking about it since and absolutely will be reading it again. As someone who loves anthology stories, sci-fi, and horror this book is everything I enjoy. On many forums it is compared to Station Eleven and Cloud Atlas. In my opinion this book is WAY more interesting and way more emotionally compelling than either of those.  I definitely have critiques but overall this book was haunting and stimulating. It is a beautiful exploration of grief and humanity.
