Good Neighbors by Sarah Langan
2.0
Did i read the same book as all these glowing reviewers did?
Did i read the same book as some of my favourite authors on the flap did?
Apparently!
This book is just— weird. It has a huge cast of characters when only a handful are relevant. It’s a piece on mob mentality and the dangers of it. It’s a very odd novel with some interesting grammar choices and with a cast of horrible people who genuinely don’t get a comeuppance for what they did.
Also I’m not entirely sure how i feel about painting the mentally ill and traumatised as a villain yet again.
