A review by offmyredcarpet
Sasquatch Summer by Talia Greer

3.5

I enjoyed this. Definitely has a dark, somber tone to it. Author is great at writing the trauma of growing up in a difficult family where you felt like an inconvenience and only rely on yourself as an adult. Plus having to dredge all that back up when the parent dies and return home to a town you only ever wanted to get away from to deal with family, the estate, etc. I wasn’t sure if the author could make a Sasquatch hold appeal but she’s successful in doing so! Interesting world building though it did seem to contradict itself. I never understood how some people knew he existed (ex lovers, a vet) while there’s a simultaneous story line trying to keep his monstrous identity hidden. That part didn’t fully work for me. I also found the ending to be a little too neatly resolved and cleaned up but it’s a fun read and I do recommend it.
