I binged this a few months ago and I genuinely enjoyed myself! I struggle with reading, eyesight and my brain can't keep quiet, but when I sat down to try this out to when I finished it, it made me want to try reading more, even if I unfortunately can't remember very much of it (my memory is pretty bad lol). I quite appreciate the ability to pick who I want to be as well.
Maybe the only thing I'll say is the end of (I forget which chapter it was, maybe 2?) felt a little abrupt, but then again, I barely remember it, either way it isn't a big deal seeing as I pretty much adored every other aspect of the writing.

Just in case someone is reading this to gauge whether they should play it, there are minor spoiler warnings in this comment!
The story is interesting, Timber is charming (so is our character) and the writing is pretty good.
I only have a few critiques to be honest, but one I haven't seen levied yet is that there's a decent amount of spatial stagnation, it feels like I'm trapped in three places: the cabin, the house and occasionally the walk to her cabin in the woods, of course I understand why this is the case but forests tend to be vast and I definitely think it could be utilised more since it's the cage we (or I suppose Timber) find ourselves in (to be clear, this isn't a comment on the background images.) A good example of something that breaks this feeling is the cave in (I believe) chapter 6 and the tree in (I believe) chapter 8. Otherwise, I enjoyed my time reading this.
My thoughts and feelings.
It's pretty cool.
Spoilers below, duh.
If I were in a better place in life, I would've cried, so all's I can do is give the story my heart. I knew how it'd end, I knew it would, yet it didn't change that the inevitable demise slipped my mind in moments of love, which is what made it harder to read. It reminds me of a true-crime in a way, learning about the victim, how amazing they were before their untimely death, I got to know the dead, and part of me hoped there would be a way they'd remain, even if I already knew they were gone.
This story wouldn't be any less without the adult content, it's only more with it, if it weren't for the last day, then it wouldn't have been so impactful, it wasn't the act itself, but the idea of such a close moment only being able to be shared through finger-taps and shaky hands, hell I'm making my stupid fag-eyes twitch while articulating this, I wish I could share my tears, but I can't, so I will share my heart.
