I wish this stuck to really being a sleep disorder and not turning into a conspiracy story. I went into this excited about the original plot.

Something about this story just wasn’t intriguing to me.. and I didn’t care for all of the back and forth and unanswered questions.

I made the mistake of forgetting that StoryGraph has content warnings before starting this book. Had I known that this book dealt with pedophilia and incestual rape, I wouldn't have chosen this. Took away from my enjoyment of the book and ultimately just wasn't my cup of tea as that's not something I care to read about. Had it not included these things, my rating would've been different.
