Reading Subcutanean while listening to Metallica's "Sanitarium" is either perfect synergy or disconcertingly frightening, or (right now) both. This is freaky. The power of a gripping book paired with its fitting soundtrack is unsettling.

One last end-of-year best-of: I got @subcutanean on our list of 2020 sci-fi books to check out, because it is both an excellent horror novel and an interesting experiment in AI storytelling theverge.com/22187387/best-s…

Kat Mustatea, is awarded a Literature Grant for VOIDOPOLIS, a retelling of Dante’s Inferno. Created with words without the letter "E", the story unfolds on IG, a digital performance culminating in loss: once the story is complete, it will be deleted forever.
Peter on Goodreads says: "Subcutanean is not just smartly written but a fantastically fun read. ...It’s eerie, creepy, and drips existential dread. That you can get your own permutation of the novel feels clinical and calculated - a perfectly resonate and thematic touch." #horror

Just finished Aaron Reed's "Subcutanean." It's one of those "whoops my house turns out to be an endless labryinth" horror stories, like House of Leaves, that I'm such a sucker for. It's really good!

update: subcutanean is great, both in terms of (I think?) pretty clever procedural generation and just having a good handle on creepy suspense-building

My #ELOrlando talk is live! It's on all the headaches that @aaronareed's @subcutanean creates for traditional approaches to textual studies. Perversely, it is also an audio-only talk at an electronic lit conference! Have a listen here: stars.library.ucf.edu/elo202…

My 50 book challenge, book #37: "Subcutanean" by @aaronareed. Aaron Reed is one of the most lauded authors of interactive fiction, having written brilliant and influential pieces like "Blue Lacuna" and "Hollywood Visionary". But now he's here with a traditional novel! 1/4

This book needs more attention.
I'm absolutely loving/terrified by my unique copy. @aaronareed created something truly special.
Without spoiling it, it's a book that gives physical shape to this destabilized reality of ours, and many others. Can't stop thinking about it. – at San Jose, CA

Just finished reading @aaronareed's Subcutanean, the novel where no two copies are the same. Tense, interesting, and very enjoyable! Planning to do a write-up... when I've read my *other* copy.
