Scowler by Daniel Kraus

5.0

This audiobook was wonderfully narrated and well written and so very emotional... It is not, however, the kind of book I feel comfortable recommending because it's very difficult to listen to as well simply BECAUSE it's so good but covers difficult subject matter. The book is terrifying and disturbing and heroic and heartbreaking. It's completely gripping, but also repellent -- the horrors that exist in this book are real world horrors and that always makes me uncomfortable. I generally prefer my terrors to be otherworldly so I can close the book and walk away. But if you prefer the grotesqueness that can exist in real life, you must read this book. It was amazing.
