I was really having fun with this story until about the halfway point, when I started to get really tired of the extremely long flashbacks. This book spent so much time catching us up on Alice's life to date, and not a whole lot of time on Alice & Peter's trip to hell - which was a shame, because Hell and Peter were the subjects I was more interested in. Alice felt very flat, even Peter's flashback made him feel more human than her, and we spent most of the book on her past. I think this could've been a better read if a lot of the same points being hammered home were cut out/condensed down. It just got boring to read (listen to, for me, because it was an audiobook) after a while.

fever dream of a prologue. love the desolate western/lost in time and space aesthetic/vibe, dunno what the hell is happening. not sure i'd continue if it weren't for fans of the series telling me it gets better. looking forward to the next!
