I really enjoyed the first two halves of the book. The writing is really engaging and quick, I liked the setting and the mixed tone. I like the idea of this freaky woman playing Elsa at Disney. Maybe this is too far into the zone of being splatterpunk for me. The last act all I could think was “I get it, you’ve read American Psycho.” And yes, I get that’s a thing she’s obviously doing on purpose but it becomes so overbearing by the end. I’ve already read American Psycho…and I didn’t care for it. 

That being said,  I do appreciate a fellow fan of Werewolf Bar Mitzvah.
