The book was alright, I liked it but I don't think I would recommend. Darnielle is good at setting a vibe, but I found the plot a bit difficult to follow, partially because I was a bit confused by the characters and their motivations to go do a particular thing, and partially because the time flip flopping confused me. I may have also been confused because I put the book down halfway done for a few months, which I must say attests to how much it grabbed me. Solid 3/5
