Finished: Alice's Last Adventure
I checked this collection out from my library and now I think I'll need to buy this myself to really dissect these stories. It's hard to tell how much I need to read between the lines of Ligotti's stories. With this one, it could be about the fear of irrevelancy, death, and/or the loop we get stuck in going through the motions until we're trapped with an "untidiness" like Alice

I enjoyed this one much more than The Frolic. A classic cult/eldritch story, with an interesting parallel to incels. The plot of this one unfolds pretty predictably, but it's fun experiencing the build up and break down of obsessive romantic possession.

Not giving this one a rating as I feel it just didn't hit the particular flavor of horror I enjoy. I feel like I missed something with this one, as I've read comments online praising how terrifying it is. I'll return to it once I finish the rest of the collection, but to me it's just a King-esque abduction of a child, not much else (?)
