this is a retelling of edgar allen poe’s “the fall of the house of usher”, which i haven’t read before, but i really liked this version!! i love a good fungal horror, as seen in my love of annihilation—i started this a while back and found it in my car so i finished it in like an hour and a half, it super quick and interesting read!! t. kingfisher’s writing in this (at least from the main character’s perspective) has an underlying comedic undertone to it that i liked a lot!! i have a few other books on my TBR that are by kingfisher so this makes me even more excited for them!!
