It was creepy, it left me feeling funny and it made me recommend it to my horror loving non reading boyfriend so I reckon that deserves 5 stars

I was a little let down by the ending if I'm being honest. I was expecting some kind of shocking/gross twist, but all in all, I can see why it ended the way it did. I still think this is a good, quick, creepy little read. Little kids in horror books always make things 10x creepier.

A nasty bit of cosmic horror featuring a child who isn't really a child.

Ick. At least it was a quick read.
