One of my most anticipated reads of 2025 and it delivered in all the best ways!
When Devils Sing is eerie, emotional and steeped in secrets. There’s a slow, creeping dread to it that I loved, especially paired with that haunting Southern Gothic feel: decaying towns, family trauma and a sense that the land itself is holding its breath.
I listened to the audiobook and highly recommend it.
It reminded me a lot of The Weight of Blood by Tiffany D. Jackson. Not just in its eerie tone but in how it used podcast segments and multiple POVs to build tension and depth.
That kind of multimedia storytelling always pulls me in and the narration made the story feel chillingly real.
It took a little time to find my footing with the characters and timeline but once it clicked, I was hooked.
Kan Kaur’s writing is lyrical and grounded, weaving themes of grief, guilt and generational trauma through every chapter.

I wanted to love this plot and I like the writing … but this felt too draggt and had to stop!
Spectacular. I look forward to what this author does next!
