5.0
Truly one of the most unique books I've ever read. Highly recommend it for everyone, but especially for fans of House of Leaves, postmodernists, people reading on their lunchbreak at the Leftist Infighting Factory, those of us who are acutely aware of their own body parts to the point of obsession, unmedicated neurodivergent teenagers, ex-arachnophobes (and those intent on becoming such), fans of run-on sentences, and those of us who can never remember if we're disassociating or not.
Content Warnings
Irreality and paranoia are major themes of this book, to the point where they dictate the entire (lack of) structure of the work.
