Everyone is going mad, including me.

Johnny’s internal monologue indicates he’s losing his shit, and I’m here for it.

I have to stop for the night. I need to give my brain a break. I have learned the definitions of at least a dozen new words. The book hasn’t really gotten all that weird yet…pretty much straight reading.

Enjoying it though. The stories, both real and made up are good, but I’m also feeling a deep sense of foreboding and dread.

I’m reading all the footnotes so far.

Just finished the prologue. I love it so far. The thing about the cats is creepy.

Also “Ever see yourself doing something in the past and no matter how many times you remember it you still want to scream stop, somehow redirect the action, reorder the present” hit kind of hard.

Googled Muss es sein. Wondering if I should start the Navsidson Record tonight.
