I really enjoyed this read. It was super unsettling, especially as someone with a young child. I was pretty sucked in and it was a quick read for me.
The ending was left quite ambiguous, and I'm not sure how I felt about it. I wish it had a bit more conclusion to it that I felt was being built up to. But I still liked it.

Another to add to the list of 'books about motherhood but make it hella unsettling' that I'm really loving atm.
This was so good, such an interesting concept and executed so so well. Unsettling, thought-provoking, yes. Would definitely love to read more from this author.
