Never-Contented Things
by Sarah Porter
Ok, I think I have forgiven the author for the nightmare (and not in a good sense) that was [b:When I Cast Your Shadow|33414246|When I Cast Your Shadow|Sarah Porter|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1486681979l/33414246._SX50_.jpg|53979090]. This was back to creepy-in-a-big-way but compulsively readable, more like [b:Vassa in the Night|28220892|Vassa in the Night|Sarah Porter|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1452803823l/28220892._SX50_.jpg|41396000]. Twisty turney slippery slimy dark and scary, full-time horror with some wicked moments of inventiveness and startlingly good imagery.
Though I'm knocking a full star-and-a-half off at LEAST for Josh. Possibly more.I hated Josh before he was even supposed to be hateable. He was pure awful, sickly sweet in all the worst, least-believable-that-an-actual-person-would-behave-like-this ways. This ruined a good bit of the book for me because a)I had to put up with hearing about him and b) he provided a good chunk of character motivation that I simply couldn't understand - I would have left the little brat to be destroyed first thing.
And what is it with this author and the bordering-on-deeply-inappropriate sibling relationships?! Two out of three is beginning to be a pattern.
