It was just okay. Worth a reread? Probably not, but it was fast-paced and fairly gruesome, so I was entertained for stretches of time.
I’m just getting tired of authors using slurs:
Ch*nk, n*gger
There was also an awful usage of “pitt bull mauling victims” to describe some statues a couple times. Not “mauling victims”. Not even “dog mauling victims”. “Pitt bull mauling victims”. What the fuck? Harmful stereotype for a sweet dog breed.
The characters were fine, and I felt like they acted according to their ages. It did feel bitter cold, and very appropriate as I look outside and see snow in the yard. Just a meh ending.
