Captivating, dreamlike, moody, atmospheric, mysterious, staggering twists.
„Silence can hold a thousand of untold stories.“ „Maybe this is love, the things we endure for the other, the willingness to face death, to stare it down, and not to be afraid.“ „A lie is a lie is a lie. It tastes the same when it leaves your throat, regardless of intent.“ „We all leave markers behind - dead or alive - vibrations that trail behind us through all the places we’ve been.“ „Because love is madness and blindness and deception.“ „Death has a way of leaving little breadcrumbs, little particles of the past that catch and settle and stain.“ „There is no history in a place until we make it, until you live a life worth remembering.“
3.5 Very slow start for me. Really had trouble getting into the book but it picked up about halfway into the story. Definitely interesting concept.
- 3.5 stars rounded up to 4 i liked it and audiobook was also good. didn't think about it much when I wasn't reading, but enjoyed it while reading and finished it in basically 2 reading sessions. the magical realism elements shockingly didn't bother me and I liked the cultish vibe of it all. characters, especially Bee, were interesting. about the plot twists - the first one wasn't that surprising for me. The second one more so, but I'm still not sure if I liked the resolution of it all.
DNF @40%. Really loved Travis as a character, beautiful narrating in the beginning of the book. Could not get invested in the three other characters to save my life, felt like listening to an attempt to describe nothingness as detailed as possible. Was constantly waiting for the story return to it’s main course, then called it a day.
