More of a painful reading experience than the Extra only because in the latter, you’re internally screaming because the situation is so difficult to parse. In this one, the dramatic irony makes you internally scream because you’re in the know of each perspective and can possibly actively see when there’s a character misstep.

Just realized that there’s a chance Neugebauer might pull the same ambiguity that she did with her first novella and if she does that here I will be sick.

Hit Ch. 15 and this is exactly what I’m talking about. Oppressive in how it makes me want to just scream but also so clear in how it’s playing with people being locked inside their own heads/perceptions that that barrier just becomes the anxious horror in and of itself. Definitely more nerve-wracking to me than The Extra.
