The other strength of this book is Jade's voice, as always. The downside is potentially how little is added to the world and story, this truly wraps up the last two books, doesn't contribute much that's new

tldr; Makes me think we would have been better off with just My Heart Is A Chainsaw as a standalone book.

Stephen Graham Jones gutted me like a fish. Feel like Casey Becker hanging from a tree with my innards falling out.
There's a bit in the acknowledgements (which I also cried at, because I don't want this to be the end) where he says "the cool thing about trilogies is you get to use every last part of the buffalo". By fuck did he use every last part--everything goes down in this finale. All the town lore combines and Proofrock undergoes it's one last hectic and gory night of chaos and blood-shed.

Anyway! Wonderful end to a wonderful trilogy. Easily as gory and brutal as the previous books (maybe more, really, my brain doesn't really register that sort of thing the first time around), deeply ruthless but not as ruthless as I feared, and the things that mattered the most, I think, all got resolved by the end.
