It seems like we got so much character work and im not sure why. I was so tired of reading yet another passage about Miri’s mom. The ending was a little unsatisfying as it left a lot of things in the dark.

Like what was the eye in the deep ocean attached to?? I wanna know.

Overall it was too slow paced for my liking.

The sea imagery was beautiful, and i was only interested in Leah’s characters tbh.
