The book IS admittedly starting to get to me. Going to have to read something cheery after. There are characters that like each other hear, but any such positive sentiment reads as distant, as if felt through cellophane wrap, while negative sentiment is raw and potent. It's a weird, watery, distant sort of book in a cool way. LOVE the prose

I realize I sound like I'm dissing this book. I am not. When I say that this book is the literary equivalent of being an awkward plus one at a cocktail party where everyone is sad and hates each other, this is in fact a testament to how well this book captures that particular voyeuristic isolation. This is SO well written

Kind of coated in this layer of malaise, but in an appealingly dreary way, rather than a depressing or discouraging way that makes you want to not read it. All of the characters are incredibly complicated and high-strung and human, all of them really likeable in the way that lets you know you would despise interacting them in real life. Weirdo lesbians my beloved. Want more old gods though
