Winter Animals by Ashani Lewis
2.0

I wanted more from this one. It was atmospheric and tense, super promising... and then just fizzled out.

Do you care about any of the characters? No. Do the characters grow in any real way? Also no. Is there any lesson here? Again, also no.

If you're into philosophy, character-driven stories and long rambling prose - this one is for you. Typically, I'm not a fan of character-driven stories and this didn't change that for me. I excpected a dark, culty, dark academia style plot and instead found deep character studies.
