this is a short story about a woman interviewing a man about his supernatural experience dealing with algae. it was super interesting, i love when nature horror books (ie this and annihilation) describe the horror in an abstract way, so you form your own idea of what it looks like. the ending i kind of saw coming once she got stuck in traffic on her way home but i like that it’s open ended enough where you don’t know if
she survives or not
