The Whispering Dark

I wanted to like this book so much more than I actually did. It had such a cool premise and really intriguing mystery with character that were both appropriately mysterious and likeable. But my god is this book a mess. The entire middle of this book is just one big mush that doesn't make clear anything that is happening. On top of that the world building is absolutely pitiful. Why can people step between world? Is it parallel worlds or just a singular one? Why is hell the singularity between them?? Who fucking knows, not the author & certainly not us.
