At the 5% point of this audiobook, Mischa had the internal thought "I had a feeling shit was going to get weird, but not this weird."  and that was the best kind of foreshadowing.  I knew immediately what I was in for, and I was right.

Shit got weird.  But not in the "WTF am I reading, I feel icky" way.  It was more the "there a certain level of believability.... I'm uncomfortable and questioning my reality" way.

Several underlying commentaries were happening here as well.  The most obvious of them being queer erasure, but also the lengths that we would go to make an extra dollar and the dangerous unknowns of AI.  I had expected this to be a fun romp in campy horror, which it was, but it also had me thinking in ways that I hadn't expected.

If I was forced to find something that I didn't like about the book, I'd say that the middle meandered a bit.  Also, I never did figure out what the script sections were about... but this could certainly be an oversight on my part.  

One item of note - the audiobook is listed as a full cast.  I don't entirely agree with this as the majority of the book was single narrator with a few notable cameos.  This by no means impacted my enjoyment, André Santana did a fantastic narration.

Thank you to NetGalley and Macmillan Audio for an advanced listening copy of the audiobook.  All opinions are my own, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.
