WOAH. This book was deeply unsettling. It was not at all what I was expecting. This was definitely more horror than thriller if you ask me, with some sci fi/paranormal elements. I quite literally could not put this book down. I tore through it and now I’m left wanting more. After that ending… WE NEED A BOOK 2! I feel so disturbed by how it ended & I really want a resolution. Took off one star because I felt like the book was a mix up of a few different things? And maybe that was intentional but I felt like the plot was just a little bit disorganized. Overall though, it was extremely well written and entertaining!

This book has left me speechless. I loved the story, the author's writing style, the between chapter bits, the puzzles. I recently learned about liminal space and it scares the crap out of me, so this book being liminal space adjacent is amazing. My only complaint is I wish the ending was a little more developed/longer, but otherwise this book is incredible.

Wanted to love it but had a hard time getting into it. I couldn’t buy into the (multiple) reality and understand the core. Not making it onto my recommended list…

Too many twists no seeming relations. Ending was unsatisfactory to me.
