I love a good fungi horror, but this felt so lackluster and unfinished. I understand it’s a vignette, but the characters all fell flat for me. Hannah was the most interesting one, but she was basically reduced to hard ass slut insomniac and… idk, I’m tired of the hard ass, sarcastic woman archetype already. I think the novella would have worked better had it been from the perspective of only 1-2 characters.

There’s a lot of potential wasted on too much introspection for characters we ultimately won’t remember.
