Wow. An amazing read. This wandered the fine line between fantasy and horror which made it a harder read for me, but it's brilliantly written and very well paced. Can't wait for the next one

A really interesting mystery but sadly wrapped in text that got too bogged down in self-righteousness

Made it a fifth of the way in and I don't think I'll ever finish it. So far the entire fifth has been a litany of NYC locations and features and I'm guessing what are inside references/jokes? I know odes to a city can be done in an appealing and approachable way to non-locals, but this isn't it, and the incidental fantasy plot didn't catch me.
