Started Early, Took My Dog

The narrative jumps between different perspectives and timelines, which kept me guessing but also confused at times. I'm curious whether this structure was planned from the start or evolved during writing.

The setting felt so lived-in and claustrophobic, yet cozy at the same time. I wonder if the author drew from real places or created this world entirely from imagination.

The dog adds a unique perspective and warmth to the narrative, but I wonder what role the author envisioned for this character beyond just being a pet.
