Wow this was good! A little slow at first but intriguing enough to keep you hooked. This is a modern southern gothic tale mixed with strong Stranger Things vibes and The Fall of the House of Usher/A Rose For Emily creepiness. A perfect spooky read!

This book had a lot of potential in the first half, but ultimately I felt the ending fell flat and I really struggled to get through the last 100 pages.

This fraidy cat stayed up until after midnight to finish reading this book in my creaky old attic apartment, so it is well worth the five stars. Spooky, but also whimsical, with a deep emotional current and a lived-in historical context. Just wonderful.
