A review by trin
The Devil Takes You Home by Gabino Iglesias

2.0

Sigh. Because there are racists on here giving this book low ratings because they don't like books calling out systemic racism or for some reason are magically offended that, in a splattery horror novel, white criminals are killed (weirdly I bet they are fine when this happens in, oh, every action movie ever), I feel like I need to clarify that these are not the reasons I don't like this book.

I don't like it because Iglesias doesn't really seem to get that women are people, not props. Also for the brief, tired transphobia.

So yeah, actually it's not woke enough for me!

Also I found the plot cartoonish and the writing bad, so. Whomp whomp.
