wowww this was good. the way it was written took a little while to get used to: its written in stream of consciousness which sometimes splits into two, so its sometimes tricky to know which part to be reading at which point, but i kind of think thats the whole point, and creates the stifling, clashing effect which perfectly matches an inner monologue. once i was used to it, however, it came really naturally, and i read it in two sittings. i’ve seen a couple reviews talking about reading this as an audiobook which i would find really interesting i think. really evocative and tactile writing. amazing. 4.5 stars
