Holy mother of God. The slow realization that overtook me. The generational trauma at the core. This is incredible. I'm speechless.

the way it makes you *feel* trapped in the story, long after you know what's going to happen. god, this is good.

statement from yulissa escobar :
The house being only prepared for external threats and not for the internal one made a LOT click for me

incredible how even though you revealed what was going to happen part of the way through, i couldn’t help but keep hoping for them to escape until the very end

This is so good but hearing “the window was nonchalant about the whole thing” caught me so off guard

the father saying hes upset because the house, THEN because almost losing his son and never because 70 children just died horrifyingly in his house is chilling

Many people think this is political or climate but I felt like Darren and our main guy and Bruce are all the burning house in some way.

this is perfect. I love the narrative framing. "i know this book and its ending.. but the end still approaches even with my terrible knowledge"

The comedic wit in this writing is incredible, and what’s even more incredible is just how excellently you weave it into a genuine, serious story. There’s just so much here that is incredible, but that in particular strikes me as noteworthy.

"You get what you pay for" while staring into the camera hit me like a ton of bricks 😯

The house being optimized for external threats and the father purposefully ignoring active warning signs from the house is a HAUNTING metaphor. The other people being oblivious 99% of the time also relfects their own intense focus on themselves and their issues, buzz, and development. In any other case that focus wouldn't be harmful but this was the time where everyone needed to be part of something bigger. To see beyond the smoke. There's other metaphors I can't articulate here. This is so well written.

“You get what you pay for” is an absolutely vicious line to pepper in at the end there, this is SO wonderful
