Holy shit my head hurts
This book is very clearly a translation. Not that the translation is bad, just that you can tell based on the somewhat disjointed and unfamiliar sentence structure.
I suspect this will take me forever to read because every sentence is so densely packed with imagery and explicatives.

I like how it’s unclear if the version of her husband that came back is her actual husband, or the doppleganger from the tower
I wonder if in later books, they travel to the island and we discover that he made it there

Some of the horror aspect and unnervingness is lost on me because I’m so bloody confused

First chapter done
I’ve gotten used to the writing style, and now the way the biologist talks to the audience is actually quite fun to read.
This makes me wanna watch the movie, even though I know it’s quite an unfaithful adaption haha
