An artist and his crazy situationship find a weird hole in his laundry room and they become obsessed with it, trying to figure it out and putting things down there. The only thing is when you put stuff down there it comes back out totally different. Very bleak, very depressing but honestly probably my favorite book because it really shows how selfish humanity has become, but it doesn’t feel that way when you read it. It’s only when you think about the concept after you finish, you’re up all night thinking about it.

I read this book in high school and I would certainly classify this one as weird. The whole book kinda just had me questioning everything and has an Oedipus Rex thing going on. I didn’t think I would like it initially, but once I finished the book it was funny to look back on. Very strange though! ðŸ˜

i read this book in early 2022. i saw it on tiktok. im admittedly not a huge reader, and books i do read seriously have to surprise me to keep me entertained. im the same with movies.
i spent months trying to track down a physical copy of this book. tiktok would never reveal too much, it really just appeared in haul videos and the comments would talk about it like a secret club. i wanted in.
i eventually gave up and read it on my phone. i wish i waited.
things have gotten worse since we last spoke is hard to explain. its the most pathetic, entrancing, and unforeseen story i have ever read. i sincerely hope someone has read this and recommends me something even more insane because ive been chasing this high ever since i read it.
the story is told over a length chatlogs shared between two women (more points for lesbians). i dont want to say much because half of the thrill of this book is discovering whats really behind those fucking emails but its a basically psychological thriller romance. dark psychological thriller romance with body horror elements but thats all im telling.
my favorite sentence ever is in from book. what have you done today to deserve your eyes? i think about it once a day. its my bio for like everything.
seriously, read this if your into the macabre. especially gay body horror stuff.

It’s about a guy finding a manuscript about a documentary that might not exist, about a house that shouldn’t exist, all wrapped in layers of footnotes, hidden messages, and pure existential dread. If you like books that mess with your head—literally and figuratively—read this.
