Okay I just read this book and I cannot stop thinking about it and just wanted to mind dump a bunch of random thoughts. This is probably more in a c/weirdlit community but I don't have one of those and I have this one so here we are.

This book is a trip, like wtf I had to read it twice to even get an idea of what was going on. I don't think I've ever really touched any literature that made me feel so uncomfortable and weird after. Just a real breakdown of normal writing and tropes and I loved it.

I still kinda just have no idea what happened or what didn't happen. I am of the opinion right now that it was a drug induced psychotic break with some real in and out of reality. That's fine and cool but what I really loved about this book is just the world. The "ice" is stressful and impending but we don't even really know what people are talking about, we just get it. I feel like there's a human like fear of the danger present by the human emotions presented to us. Even if none of this was real, it felt so real. The journey felt so real.

Anyone else read this book and want to have a conversation on what the hell this is about?
