A coming home horror novel. Light on the horror. I enjoy a lot of T Kingfisher stories as there's enough suspense and horror without it keeping me up at night, like Diet Horror. It was also refreshing to have a fat protagonist who had good self-esteem. Their weight was mentioned when appropriate to the story but not once did they wish they were smaller or talk about their weight as if it was a bad thing. Loved it.
