About
You may enjoy this if you like slow-burn, unsettling mysteries about adults losing their footing around ominously gifted kids and big social anxieties; Not for you if you need clear answers or tidy payoffs, like in Black Box.
Pros: gripping sense of dread; intriguing mystery setup; unsettling atmosphere | Cons: answers feel withheld; themes feel scattered; characters underdeveloped
