Leech by Hiron Ennes
3.0
an otherwise 4/5 (maybe even 5/5, the foreshadowing and parallels and worldbuilding is SO tasty) book let down by culturally appropriating an Algonquian cultural belief. it's really a plot element and they're divorced from cultural context, depicted inaccurately, and even the basic point of them is changed. LITERALLY JUST MAKE UP ANOTHER DEER MONSTER. CHRIST.
Moderate: Cultural appropriation
