I really wanted to enjoy this book, but the shift to epistolary was really jarring for me. The actual story itself continues to be amazing and I understand why it was formatted the way it was, but it was far more of a chore for me to read than the previous two novellas.
Graphic: Confinement, Deadnaming, Gore, Violence, and Blood
Moderate: Animal cruelty, Animal death, Body horror, and Child abuse
