What Feasts at Night
by T. Kingfisher
I was thrilled to receive an ARC of What Feasts at Night through NetGalley, especially after falling in love with T. Kingfisher's What Moves the Dead. Kingfisher has a knack for crafting eerie, atmospheric tales that crawl under your skin, and I was excited to dive into another one of her works.
The writing in What Feasts at Night lived up to my expectations. Kingfisher excels at setting a chilling, immersive scene, and she paints her worlds with a vivid brush.
However, I found myself not quite as hooked on What Feasts at Night as I was with What Moves the Dead. The pacing in this one was uneven for me—at times, it would build up wonderfully, but then it would slow down in ways that pulled me out of the story. There were sections that I found less engaging, and I struggled to stay invested during those lulls. This inconsistency made it harder for me to fully lose myself in the book.
That said, I still think Kingfisher is a master of the creepy and the unsettling, and I'd happily read more of her work in the future.
