Ugh I loved this so so much - it scratches that itch left by books like I Keep My Exoskeletons To Myself, Our Wives Under The Sea, and Paradise Rot. Full of existential dread and musings, questions about the nature of reality and how we can ever really know whether we’re truly grounded in it. I confess I was hoping for more answers by the end that I didn’t get, but I also know that part of the beauty of this specific kind of book is precisely that it leaves you with more questions than answers. Plus, the audiobook was only four hours long (two for me since I listen on double speed) and I just love a book I can devour in one sitting. Which I absolutely did.
