What did I just read?!?

This book is dark, dense, emotional, and so weird. Haunted house? Check. Cosmic horror? Yep. Time loops, trauma, demon deer? Also yes.


It almost felt like too much… but somehow, it all worked. Everything tied together in the end, and I was genuinely impressed by how Wendig pulled it off.


Not a fast or easy read, but definitely a memorable one.
