Absolute perfection. I haven’t loved a main character like I loved Damon in years. The audiobook was superbly voice acted, fully capturing the dialect of the region.

This book was haunting and funny and upsetting and hopeful all at once. A really driven narrative that's so unsettling and addictive. I both loved and hated picking it up for fear of what was going happen next. This book has been living rent free in my head the entire time I've been reading it and I'm sure it'll stay for some time to come.
