I’m so sad this one didn’t work for me. I’m starting to think that You’ve Lost a Lot of Blood was a fluke and LaRocca isn’t the one for me but I *so* badly want to love them!!

Everything the Darkness Eats had the potential to be such a win for me on paper, but the writing coupled with how disjointed and rushed the plot and ending felt just made it impossible to take anything meaningful away from it. I will definitely keep picking their books up, I’m just not as optimistic as I once was about them.
