I anticipated falling head over heels with this book, following a queer content moderator for an unnamed giant tech corporation, but I think it suffered from my expectations being too high. That, and the fact it felt a bit too short to be fully developed. 

I thought more of the focus would be on Kayleigh’s work and its effect on her mental state, but instead most of the focus is on a relationship she developed while working for this company. Initially I felt like Bervoets more explored the effect of viewing such graphic, shocking and misleading content on the minor characters than on Kayleigh. But then when I read some more reviews and sat with it for a while, I realised Kayleigh was just as messed up by her work - if not more so. I have to agree that the ending was ?? And ultimately the book just needed to be longer to properly grapple with the content. 

I can’t fault the translation by Emma Rault, it reads super smoothly.
