I know I’ve already commented on Chapters 1 and 2, but not on Kerning! Again, love the way you opened this line. It’s attention-grabbing right from the start. Certain historical periods have this romanticized idea about them so this darkness just smacks you right in the face and makes you curious right away.\

The first-person aspect really fits the voice of the narrator; it feels like them writing and speaking, not a writer who’s made characters. It’s like I’ve found a deeply personal journal or something and I love that feeling.
