This month was a really great month for book releases, and this was one of my most anticipated! It did not disappoint this is so highly rated for a reason! I love Hailey Piper’s writing style and have really enjoyed everything of hers I’ve read. She’s really good at fitting a lot in a short amount of pages so I was really interested to see what she’d do with 430 pages of space to build in. Each of her books has a really interesting world she constructs and the fantasy horror noir in this one was really fun to read and immerse myself into. The Gods, Goddesses, and Godexs have all vanished leaving the mortals and their half human children to fend for themselves. Major flooding is drowning the city and what’s in the water may be a fate even worse then that. Everyone is suffering, and on top of it all there is a serial killer loose in the city. I don’t really want to give too much away because I like going into books as blind as possible and I really think that’s the best way to read it. There was so much action and stuff going on, really fast paced, that starts from page one. I couldn’t put this book down and it might be my favorite Hailey Piper read yet!
