This one was fine. It kind of gave off I'm Thinking of Ending Things vibes, which is one of my favorite horror books of all time, but instead of my mind being jelly I just felt confused. I think most of this one went over my head even though I consider myself to be a pretty attentive/clever reader. The prose was very pretty though and I did like the story, even if I'm not sure I could summarize it to anyone.
