Come Closer is a deeply unsettling book that not only convincingly captures the horror of demonic possession but also provides an alarming analysis of how quickly intimate relationships can fall apart as we become more alienated and more fragmented in our thought processes. Despite the potent metaphor at the core of the book, it’s also a damn good horror story that will leave you unsettled and more than a little unsure of your own sanity.

Really enjoyed this book! Quick and fun read to set the mood for halloween, although sometimes felt it was a little too quick and dramatic. Still, had a good time reading it :)

Felt proper bad for Amanda come the end bless x
