It was good, but it just didn't quite grab me like other Ania Ahlborn work.

This book is a lot of fun - a quick, tight story about ... madness? Depression? Anxiety? And definitely bugs. The focus is on Kim, a new mother, and their purchase of a new house. There's a husband and eventually a baby but their just wireframe props for Kim, who is either experiencing something supernatural and horrifying, or having a psychotic breakdown. It's difficult to tell. Great storytelling and setup, and the bugs will leave you scratching and itching for more.

dark mysterious tense fast-paced

Plot or Character Driven: Character

This short tense horror story just confirmed 2 things 1) you should always run away from creepy old people sitting in a dark corner -they are never harmless, even if they don't touch you - and 2) trust your damn instinct especially about anything that seems too good to be true.
