Mongrels by Stephen Graham Jones
3.0
challenging dark emotional mysterious reflective sad tense slow-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Complicated
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Complicated

it didn’t actually take me this long to read, I just read a few pages and then was whammied by a bunch of library holds and pre-orders 🙈

I don’t have many thoughts about this one- it was very human, more literary than horror, in a good way. I felt so deeply for the characters and their realities as Other in the US

the ending was a bit fade to black but in a way that I think matches the frequent lack of closure in real life
