Interesting premise. I liked how the majority of the plot actually took place in one setting - created a claustrophobic feeling that made the mist even more unnerving. I started losing interest once the “monsters” were revealed to literally just be like, big slugs and crabs lmao
Liked the colloquial voice of the narrator David. Really did feel like I was reading someone's journal
Really interesting. Lovely, simple world-building. I have a soft spot in my heart for the main character.
Not much “happens” but the meandering chapters where Piranesi just records his day-to-day are so wholesome and charming that I don't mind the slow pace at all.
I do wish it came to more of a climax in the latter half.
Quick read that kept me interested. I found it to be over-reliant on somewhat overwrought/cringy? dialogue. Evelyn was a compelling character; Monique was not.
Gripping, brutal, honest, and well-written. This book tore up a lot of my assumptions about the Columbine massacre and the killers themselves.
Loved the non-chronological structure in the latter half of the book, and the way the author interwove multiple stories together. Perfect balance of facts about the massacre, deep dive into the psychology of the killers, and stories of the survivors, victims, and families left behind.
