This was a nice read, one I've had on my shelf for quite some time and I'm very glad I finally got around to reading it. I loved the length of it , honestly, it was a nice read for me to spend time on and it was a good book to pick up and put down. I was invested in it, but not to the point where I couldn't put it down, which, honestly I appreciated.
It did drag at times, and the story itself felt both drawn out and unresolved, especially withthe two girls, Clara and Flo, who we meet at the beginning of the book; I felt their story was especially unresolved . I also felt there was a bit much going on with the movie within a movie, made from a book, all within a book. It got confusing and seemed just too meta at times which detracted from the story. I almost felt like I didn't care about any of the MC's from this timeline.
Is it the best book I've ever read? No, but I'm glad I read it! I'd be interested to read more queer/sapphic horror!!
