The Starless Sea

uh... sorry?

i guess i just don't get it. while the writing was immersive and beautiful, i just didn't really understand enough of what was going on, and wasn't lost enough to just vibe. i found the jump between the fantastical and real world to be really jarring throughout the book, and as we dove deeper into the fantastical world, i missed the boring (and honestly irrelevant) real world part of the book (seriously, what was the point of the first like 100 pages?)

perhaps i wasn't in the mood for this but man do i feel catfished lmao
