✨🌠 my about / byf / CW info carrd: uchiha-madara 🌠✨

As filling as sea foam. I'm left wanting horror having fed none. It's very pretty writing. This book is really, like, white woman oriented. And bland. Where is the fucking? There's lesbians for christ sake. Of course we fuck. And where is the horror? Forgotten in the sea? The most we get is a little body horror and some oh noes DX moments in the ocean. Meh. 

No rating because I'm aware that I'm the wrong audience. 

If you came here looking for lesbian horror, ehhhhh skip this one. Listen, read this.

▪ “Ghosts don’t speak,” she said to me. “People misunderstand this. They think that when you’re haunted you hear someone speaking but you don’t. Or not usually. Most of the time, if you hear something speaking, it’s not a ghost – it’s something worse.”

This is the most horror you get out of this book. No really.
