This is a beautiful tale, no doubt. Grief horror is always fascinating to read because it's so interesting to watch how different people process the same grief. 
The concept is very interesting too, a woman who literally feeds her grief. 

This is very beautifully written, engaging, and fast paced.


What I didn't enjoy was probably Lena's whole character, i didn't see the point of why she was included in such detail, only to not give her a satisfying ending. 

also i don't know if this is just because it's a man writing the book, but quite a few times the author uses ‘vagina' when I think he means vulva? Quite a few fingering scenes, and the author says vagina every time.
