SUCH a good read. This is a genuinely perfect example of creeping horror and body horror. 

I adored the main character, their inner dialogue, and the history and culture the author managed to show us through them in such a short amount of time. This book is so short but so rich at the same time. 

It takes a lot to give me the heebies. This book actually made my spine tingle. At least twice. 

Highly recommend to anyone needing a delightfully creepy read.

Generally a nice read but the latter half of the book moves too quick for my taste.
