I waffled back and forth about this book. I think it's done well for a thriller/horror in first person POV, but at the same time I found myself unhappy at the ending. It just fades to an end that seems so mundane for the story.
I will say the content in this book is incredibly heavy and homophobic slurs are used multiple times (often through the lens of the demon being horrific). It was an interesting but uncomfortable read.

Graphic: Murder, Blood, and Violence
Moderate: Gore, Sexual content, and Homophobia
Minor: Child abuse and Animal cruelty
This novella has a lot. Murder happens on page with lots of blood and gore. A child is almost drowned. Animals are hurt.
Homophobic slurs are used multiple times.
