Moshfegh is a reliably good writer, this was the only one of her books I've read that I wasnt extremely upset by, ha. Excellent bedtime read because its mostly about sleeping and it made me very sleepy.

I liked the idea of this book a bit more than actually reading it–still, it was extremely strange and beautiful, and was nice to read while digesting some grief/death related feelings. Would recommend reading a synopsis beforehand.
