I have. It's not really my kind of story, but it was great. Its exploration of themes such as the idea that beauty is all that matters, the duality of human nature, and the consequences of moral degradation and narcissism was interesting... and a little frightening.

I found it be a beautiful tragedy, a cautionary tale.
When I finished it 2 days ago, I stood still for like 5 minutes trying to process what happens.
It’s such a layered story, and despite what people may think, the author isn’t taking sides, nor agreeing with this character and disagreeing with that one.
If you ask me, it deserves be elevated to the realm of myth for it puts the tale of Narcissus to shame.
