HOT DANG this had me all kinds of messed up. i’m not normally into stuff that’s set any earlier than like the 60s/70s and it took me a bit to get really into it, but this was so interesting, gross, and just straight up creepy. 100% recommend to anyone who needs a good spook.
I think the only way to read Catriona Ward is to go in blind, have no expectations and allow yourself to be immersed into the world she builds. Her plots challenge my perspective. I was happy to buddy read this with @readergirlie and have someone to discuss with.
Little Eve definitely showed that you can be swept up in a belief or system simply because the people around you believe it hard enough for you both. When you look up to people and expect the truth and then find out it wasn't as it seemed, that can be heart breaking. To put so much energy into someone, or something, to only realize the same wasn't given to you, well, that hurts.
All of the characters in this story held a separate type of weight, each one of the same journey but in different degrees. We mostly learn through Eve's pov and stick with her as she challenges herself with discovering information. Eve likes to learn things.
Gothic horror can be one of those genres that can be misunderstood, when people expect edge of the seat and shocking, they are looking for a thriller. If you are looking for something haunting and a fear that is all too real, this is a good one to read.
