I will have to rate this book at a later date. I both hated it and yet was addicted to it. I'm not sure what I just read and need time to digest this book.

This is a brilliant book and I loved it. The first 75 pages were quite slow but once the pace picked up, I couldn’t put it down and finished it in one afternoon.

Aims to be clever, doesn't even get to be pretentious. It feels vulgar, for the most part, and confusing to the point of sloppiness.

This book was genuine insanity. I highly recommend it but please be careful when reading it because you WILL get completely absorbed and also terrified. Laugh-out-loud hysteria in a nutshell. I adored this book and will be going back to annotate it.

4.5

well-written thriller, i really enjoyed the writing style and the mystery and twists. it was a very engaging book, and i enjoyed the unreliable narrator that samantha was. the vibes put in by the book, and the writing style, put in enough doubts early on that the twists feel just unexpected enough. the mysteries and weirdness really worked for me, and that was a huge surprise. the setting of creative writing majors in a pretentious college writing a final work worked so well, it was fascinating and relatable because i, too, am starting my final thesis.

but that was also frustrating. we got so lost in samantha's mind (which is an impressive writing feat, so clearly masterfully done), that it was incredibly hard to find the "point" of the story. the book feels like it has so much to say, so much that it can say, and i wish for there to be a "point" to it all. for the book, or the author, to tell me how to read it, how to interpret it. but maybe the beauty is in how multi-interpretable it is, in the end, and maybe the fact that i feel this frustration only means the writing is that good, because this is a book that i keep coming back to and re-thinking about.
