Loved the tone of Dietland which led me to request this from NetGalley as soon as I spotted it. It's so different from that book yet equally enthralling. A unique premise, a captivating story, and a genre-bending work overall. Not sure how much additional editing will take place prior to publication, but there were definitely some parts that I found tedious and repetitive. Still, a solid four stars.

Incredible until Calla dies and then it fizzles out in several directions and never answers why they all die, what really happens etc

This book stands on the border of gothic horror and Gothic thriller, and I loved it. Read and wonder whether the mysterious fates of the Chapel sisters are merely strange and devastating or something more. There are moments that drag or that seem strangely removed, and what really keeps it from 5 stars for me is the sense that we get rushed after the portion of the book that focuses in depth on Rosalind. Would read again!
