I am a full-grown, fully functional adult. I pay my taxes, I look forward to my morning coffee, and I have a vague notion of the rules of golf. I enjoy fiction best with a mug of something hot and a plate of something sweet at my side while I curl up in a large armchair next to a window. All this to say, I am a very boring person and am proud of the stability of my boringness. 

But this book made me afraid of the dark in a way I haven't been since I was a small child, and I finished it within two days of picking it back up again after setting it down for finals. I can't explain it at all, but I will be thinking about this book for years. I can't believe I've never heard of the author before, but I'm so glad I bought this because I will probably page through it again in the future just to remind myself what true horror is.

Second read-through: still one of the most amazing and horrific books I’ve ever read, full stop. 

When I say I want historical fantasy, THIS is what I’m talking about
