I went into this blind, and really enjoyed the first part of the story- it had a creepy and unsettling vibe which really set the tone of the book. The last part went a little weird for me, but it was a different idea that I've not read before, which was interesting. It gave me lovecraftian vibes, though I couldn't say why!

I'm going to be honest. I finished this book last night, I've mulled it over, and I still don't know how I feel about it. I was vaguely confused the whole time, as you're thrust headlong into the story with very little backstory. Then you get some backstory, then the book ends so abruptly it made my head spin. The writing is very, very good (almost leaning to purple prose at times) and the cosmic dystopian premise sounded intriguing, but it ultimately missed the mark for me. 2.75 stars
