Maybe a 2.5 - I kind of hated this? But also couldn't stop reading it? The characters you're following at any given time are mostly terrible people who do and say things that I hate. The actual story is pretty compelling though and fairly unique. I never got a full sense of everything that the fungal infections were capable of but what we saw was pretty gruesome and interesting. The biggest takeaway from reading this is that I think fungi are cool as hell and I want to read more about them.
