"We teach females that in relationships, compromise is what a woman is more likely to do."

"We teach boys to be afraid o fear, of weakness, of vulnerability. We teach them to mask their true selves, because they have to be... a hard man."

Weird. I can't really tell if I find any of this particularly creepy yet. The book is so plainly written, and just by saying: "Other Mommy leaves the closet, Other Mommy's at the bed..." and so on, it doesn't mean the story's actually scary or disturbing. So far, not very impressed. The child perspective is interesting, but so far it doesn't help the horror aspect.

Strange, fast-paced, and mildly disgusting

Not sure if I'll keep going. I'm paused for now.

Oddly enough, Cameron has become a surprisingly simple protagonist that he has a mission. All of his sarcasm and, honestly, personality has completely faded away. He's beginning to feel like just every other protagonist.

Is the author doing this to show that he's willing to be serious to save his life? Or am I just reaching the stages in the book where everything begins to lose its initial interest.

Still a fun book, but the sarcasm and everything else has significantly diminished after a long, relatable, and ridiculous first act.

Gonzo is going on this trip way too willingly... or is there something to him?
