What a gut wrenching gruesome story of grief. This book was awesome and terrifying and made me feel some really big feelings about loss, fear, death, and the hereafter. I highly recommend this book for anyone who needs a ghosty thrill or a good cry

1.0

I felt like this was an incoherent mess, there was too much going on and nothing really made sense or was explained? The plot was all over the place and tried to be too many things at once. This was supposed to be horror but I felt like I was reading a depressing diary entry of a man spiraling into madness, and not in a fun way.

Good horror read. Some jumpy timelines made it confusing which is the point.
