Overall, a fascinating and dark read. I felt the pace was a little too fast; there were things I wanted the author to dive into more deeply, I wanted a better understanding of them.stardustvein's review

Although the ending felt rushed and, if I'm being honest, a bit predictable, The Bird Eater is a well written story of a haunting not only of a house, but a mind.
-spoiler, kind of?-
Cheri is awful, and the way she pushed herself on Aaron (despite having not seen him in over 20 years) really irritated me.

For transparency, they do go on to express their thanks to those who helped shape the book, but I think this line specifically more than anything describes the experience I had while reading.
