Several days later and I am still feeling a little brain damaged by this short story. I can't stop thinking, "What the hell did I just read?" What the actual....
In addition to being dazed by the darkness of this book, I really truly don't understand what was going on. I was so lost on the rules of 'the game'. I didn't completely buy into the fact that they had this perfect marriage prior to 'The Flip' and I wasn't sure how 1 night could change everythng they had built their marriage on and built. But this is a short story and some of the emotional depth & back story is always lost. Still, I was drawn in, on the edge of my seat, horrified and excited. All stuff I love to feel when reading.
I am a fan of Alaksa Angelini (and AA Dark), so it's no surprise. She tends to shock and alarm me and I love that about her writing.
