This book is like if your fever dream had a moral of the story. I wouldn't really go in expecting a plot, which is fine! But around the 50% mark I did have to sort of force myself to keep reading, partly because it felt like once you get there, why is there much more of the book left, though around 80-ish I got really into it again! Also I thought the narrator really added to the ambiance and nailed the tone of the book, but I am BEGGING audiobook narrators to stop actually whispering, it's so uncomfortable (but it's not terribly overused here, I just noticed it several times as I was finishing this one today)
