Extremely slow paced, often repetitive - lots of push-pull, I-shouldn't-but-I-want-to, arguing, etc. - yet Misha Horne is such a strong writer that I still didn't hate this at all. If it had been a different writer I probably would have DNF'ed, but Horne can make a scene where the characters do laundry into the most interesting in the book (and it genuinely was).
Every book by them is a deep dive into what makes the characters so fucked up, which I love. I only wish this one had dived a little deeper into the LI (Brett) and how his life will fit together with the narrator's after the story ends. This was a book where I genuinely would have appreciated a "___ Years Later" epilogue - it feels a little too small-picture.
