This story feels like an edgelord's wet dream. There are frequent references to things that are just never explained or further expanded upon, leaving the reader confused. The concept itself is interesting, but very poorly done, containing the bare minimum that would constitute a book and leaving the reader wanting more, in the worst possible way possible. One of the most childish and simplest books I've ever had the displeasure of reading.
