Confused. Scared. Intrigued. Not sure what I just read but I do know I liked what I read.

Sehr Poetisch!

Für depressive Menschen würde ich es jedoch nicht empfehlen 😅 Es ist zudem irgendwie anstrengend zu lesen, da die Geschichte überwiegend nur an einem Ort spielt..

Sehr Poetisch!

3.25/5 Brilliantly executed and written so atmospherically. It’s rare (for me) to read something that makes me feel like I am sitting on the edge of my seat. And I read it in a day or so, that is also a good sign. Somewhere in the middle of the book happens A Thing which led me to suspect Another Thing. And in the End it turned out to be true - this was so rewarding, but also kind of disappointing? I think I expected a somehow bigger twist in the end (i KNOW I shouldn’t, like, hype myself up for things), but it was in the end “excused” with an open but still clear cut end and a “mental-illness-plot-device” (which is like 50% the bibliography of Sebastian Fitzek, a german author. And sidenote nation: There is a German young/new adult thriller called 'Der Scherbensammler' I read ages ago which has basically the same/a similar plot but more “fluffy” and fitting for 14-year-olds). But still, the atmospheric language, the feeling of uneasiness especially when the two characters are on the road and the brilliantly sparse settings made me enjoy this book a lot!

Unglaublich spannendes Buch für kalte Wintertage.

o_O On an immediate reread I know it’s an all time favorite. I’m obsessed and upset. The way this story pieces itself together in a completely different way after knowing the ending is incredible. There are so many details and scenes that just hit different. The themes that it’s actually talking about broke me on this reread and now I hate thinking about this book cause it makes me sad. It fills me with a very unique kind of dread.

Verwirrend

Das Buch war für mich dauerhaft langweilig. Trotzdem war ich immer angespannt was nun ist, wie es endet. Das Ende hat mich komplett verwirrt. Ich würde das Buch nicht weiterempfehlen aber ist Geschmackssache :)

Eerie, mysterious, psychological, twisted yet philosophical. Wow.

Es klang spannend und wurde mit dem Slogan "Für Fans von Stephen King" empfohlen. Als spannend, beklemmend und gruselig. Während die philosophischen Gespräche in der ersten Hälfte interessant war, war ab der zweiten Hälfte sehr klar, was Sache war. Die große Enthüllung deutete sich an und war unspektakulär, unlogisch und konfus. Leider ein Flop für mich! Während ich die Rezension getippt und nochmal über das Buch geschlafen habe, muss ich mein Rating nach unten korrigieren. Meine ausführliche Rezension.
