The slasher vibes were real, the trope subversion was immaculate and Jade was a fucking fantastic lead character with the Author Notes just validating that sentiment to me even more when I read them.
I immediately went and purchased a copy for my own collection and will be waiting in avid anticipation for the sequel.
This bloody delivered in every way I wanted it to and every way I didn’t know I needed it to.
Go read this.

There are enough moments that leave you off-balance, never sure whether to think Jade is going in the right direction, that the end still manages to be a surprise. And oh, that ending--cinematic in scope and rollercoaster-fast. I've been reading a lot of bleak history lately, and this was a machete-wielding snack of a book, drenched in blood and lake water. Just what I wanted it to be.
