“At first this was boring AF. Then it got fun and weird. Then the main character took a shroom trip that gave him insight into defeating the centipede, which…was sort of incredibly stupid, but it was still weirdly fun to read.
I wish someone I knew would read this. I didn’t understand the ending. There’s a couple page where the character is maybe talking to his boyfriend, or maybe it’s a flashback, or maybe, I don’t know. There’s something else happening here. I tried pretty hard. I took classes in college to interpret literature, and I still didn’t really get it. Is everyone else alive? Is this fantasy? What the hell is going on?
This is why a book needs like 10 beta readers. If 5 out of 10 don’t pick up on something, it’s not working. I’m 1 out of I don’t know how many, so maybe I’m the one idiot. But I don’t think so. BUT maybe I don’t think so because I’m the one idiot. Am I stupid, or am I too stupid to know that I’m stupid.”
