Good, quick read submitted by allishaklausch on July 15, 2016, 4:50pm I enjoyed this book. It was kind of odd, but the story was good, and had a very unsettling feeling.
hilarious but also serious as a heart attack submitted by gracebdo on August 18, 2019, 8:38pm This book is readable in 3 hours. It is really creepy but also unexpected and sort of delightful at the same time. even the smallest details create mysteries that leave you thinking about it for days, NO WEEKS afterwards. The main character is also very funny, he sort of has a laissez faire attitude that is hilarious considering all he is facing.
