The Collective

The way the collective exerts influence felt so intense and realistic. I wonder what inspired the author to explore this kind of social manipulation.

The rapid shifts from camaraderie to suspicion made me question how well I really know the people around me. Was this tension intentional to reflect real group paranoia?

The pacing and revelations kept me guessing without feeling rushed. I'm curious whether the story was plotted out in detail or if it evolved during writing.
