Although the ending felt rushed and, if I'm being honest, a bit predictable, The Bird Eater is a well written story of a haunting not only of a house, but a mind.

For transparency, they do go on to express their thanks to those who helped shape the book, but I think this line specifically more than anything describes the experience I had while reading.
