This book will have you holding your breath. It takes a second to unfurl the message and grim secrets. It's surreal and will have you constantly shocked.

First of all, I love Eric Larocca. He writes a lot of different genres of horror but this one unfortunately wasn't for me. Nothing against him. This one just really missed the mark for me 'personally'. I will continue to pick up anything he writes in the future cause the man can WRITE!

Eric Larocca is defo becoming a new author of mine, this is the 3rd book I’ve read by him and by far my fav. His work is bizarrely unique and disturbingly pleasing!
I can’t even begin to explain this one with out spoiling the whole thing, it’s less than 100 pages…go read it now

Absolutely love Eric LaRoccas writing and will read anything he releases! This one was super fun in that he completely mixed the fantasy and horror genres together to create this weird and creepy little book.

I finished this in one sitting and once again was hooked by his kick ass descriptions, gross scenes, and unsettling atmospheres. There’s definitely a LOT of fantasy-type elements in here so while I agree this won’t be the book for everyone, it definitely was for me.

We Can Never Leave This Place reads like a fucked up Haruki Murakami or Samanta Schweblin novel. Absolutely gut wrenching and surreal.

Damn this was a ride, idk what to say but oh I loved the circusy dialogues, idk what to call them, they were very on point and creepy as hell. And damn that twist was ahem disturbing and added more meaning to a lot of the story. Idk if I'll come back to write a better review, I'd want to, but for now this is it. I'd recommend, if you can handle gore, and check out the trigger warnings first.
