I enjoyed this book. Another very fun horror read from Erin Craig, but the plot was a little frustrating.
It bothered me that the base of the plot was almost wholesale M. Night Shyamalan's The Village. It's a fun trope, but I was expecting another fairy tale/fable inspired read from this author, and I guess it was supposed to be Rumpelstiltskin, but I feel like that's a stretch from what we actually got.
