Did not realize it is almost 700 pages long!

This author (whalefall guy) is just incredible

Am I reading this all in one day? Maybe… pro tip: don’t read this book if you can’t handle second-hand embarrassment 🫣😂

This is SO GOOD! Would recommend

Are you considering reading this book? GREAT! Take all of your expectations and throw them violently down a garbage disposal and then maybe reconsider 🤠 I am this 🤏🏼 close to it being a DNF. Only reason I’m staying is for scares (there are none so far because everything is SO PREDICTABLE). Help me. I hate it here.

It’s taking everything in me not to give up on this book (I need to see what happens but I can assume it’ll be VERY PREDICTABLE JUST LIKE EVERYTHING ELSE). I’ve taken to writing sarcastic comments on every page. I will persevere but maybe also send help.

Main character is said to be 38. Main character has the maturity of a 12 year old. The concept is intriguing but it’s written very poorly.

IT’S SO WEIRD. Begins in second person but like in a good way??? Obscure and I’m here for it. For now, at least.

Gettin spooky

You know how you’re not supposed to name characters anything that sounds too similar because it’s confusing to read? Well tell that to

-Charlie and Carlton
-Jason and John

And *objectively* the worst ever:
-Marla and Lamar

The book is satisfactorily creepy, but looks like they’re introducing a romance and I am not here for that.

Doesn’t seem consistent with the game timeline (?) confused.

Horrifyingly good. Can’t put it down. WANT to put it down. Can’t.

FLYING through this one. So good!!!

Getting better now that new characters aren’t being introduced

I think what’s bothering me the most is that there’s a physical description for every woman involved. I might care that Grace is interested in politics or that Helen matched her lipstick to her nails every day—things that help build their CHARACTERS, but when you’re giving me 15 women’s names at once, I can’t possibly keep track of which ones are blonde or short or pretty or overweight.

The writing style is just not it for me so far…hoping it pulls itself together. It’s a strange kind of historical nonfiction smashed together with “and also we made it a 3rd person YA novel” and those two don’t really blend together well in my opinion BUT I am only a few pages in

I’ve been reading all night and cannot put it down!

This is the FUNNIEST THING EVER
