4.5 ⭐️ rounded up

book 8/18 for my october horror reading challenge (still pretending!)

i loved this book. gross/fun/nauseating in the usual way, but even more deeply emotional. i very much hate to say this, but i related a lot to both ziggy and calhoun, and i felt incredibly attached to the two of them and both their individual stories and their joined one. being honest, i was a little teary eyed towards the end, which is a little crazy to me, but i really wished the two of them would get a happy ending together — not that i would ever expect to get that in a cooper novel.

anyway, this was my favourite of the george miles cycle so far, but i still have two more left to go, so we shall see if that impression still changes.
