The dread in this book is palpable. 😩
It would have been 5 stars for me if the horror had really gone there, but it’s a great book with a hella haunting atmosphere. Definitely read if you liked needful things.

I’m not sure if I went into this book with the wrong idea of what it was going to be, but it’s entirely possible.
With praise of it being “truly terrifying” I suppose it crafted different expectations for me than what I got. Make no mistake, the auctioneer himself was horrible, a truly disgusting human being, but the book itself I found tedious and often too slow.
There was a fair amount of repetition throughout, and the ending wasn’t a satisfying conclusion as I was hoping.
