The ending was layered, a bit surprising, and intriguing.
I may not revisit this book, but I’d happily read more work from this author!

I will say: at first it felt a bit too much like Crimson Peak, which I know was intentional, but I wanted more variety. And it took a bit too long to get to the action that felt like anything.
But I like the character of Jane Lawrence herself a lot. I like that she's autistic and just is. I also really like the descriptions of the gore and medical stuff and blood. Very visceral without being excessive, self-serving, or unnecessary.

It got a little meta and hard to follow towards the end but I enjoyed it, great Halloween read.
