The Eyes Are the Best Part by Monika Kim

2.0

i was really digging this but in the end it turned into way more of a cheap thriller than the horror i wanted. hated the late-stage "twist"/explanation which is ultimately what really soured the whole book for me. feels like the author was really scrambling to wrap things up and it was very unsatisfying. the plot thread w/ the woman in her class she obviously had a crush on was also very underexplored and dropped pretty quickly to get to the end of the story. i think if this had a little more wiggle room and had stretched things a bit farther and not relied on bad cliches it would have really been something good!
