A very drawn-out tale with compelling moments and equally dull or dragging ones. I enjoyed the prose immensely despite feeling the plot lost focus several times.

i just couldn’t do 27 hrs of listening to this. it is well written and i do want to know what happens but it’s just so heavy and dark i felt bad while listening. 
also i really struggle with staying with MCs who are horrible people unless specifically it’s a hate read. but like

how hits his child, uses that random guy for sex that somehow gives him power, and sleeps with the sister of his wife

Hope to pick it up again someday. Pretty interesting to read a POV of someone with chronic migraines tho!

Well written but a little too dark for my tastes at the moment. May come back to it later.

I loved this. I was a little confused in the beginning but I was so invested that I just kept pushing through. I think the combination of cults, religion, horror, ghosts made a story that felt very unique, yet still feeling familiar.

When I realized this book was over 500 pages I felt my eyes pop out of my head like a god damn cartoon. But now that I've finished it I feel like the ink used to print this book was absolutely worth it. The layers and complexities to this story was so compelling that I couldn't put it down. I definitely need a long nap & a cute puppy compilation video after this.
