Falls apart in execution.
Pretty straight forward neighborhood demonic possession story - and the author isn’t as witty as she hoped she’d be with her obsessive use of overlong simile and musings on motherhood, womanhood, and neighborhood politics.
Not much goes on - even the parts meant to be “scary” aren’t that scary at all.
Too much musings from Amy’s perspective, so much random dialogue and backstory and mundane suburban goings-on - not nearly enough demonic possession.

I do not know if you can call a book about demon possession and exorcisms cute, but that is how I would explain this book. It was the perfect palate cleanser for me with my other intense books I just finished, and was a quick fun read.
This was very unique and kept me guessing. Enjoyed the humor. Enjoyed the demonic elements.

This book made me chuckle. I loved how mundane the characters were despite the plot being anything but. Clear plot progressions and character motivations made for a great experience.
If you’re a fan of My Best Friend’s Exorcism by Grady Hendrix, then you should definitely check this out.

2.5 read for me... I think it's a me thing though...
Chick lit mixed with horror elements. It's an easy read, the writing style is fast pace. What I found that was a me problem is that, I don't think I like chick lit with my horror... I cringed a lot while reading this one.

The story was good! Had some trouble with the dialogue but not too bad!
