Sister, Maiden, Monster by Lucy A. Snyder
3.0
dark medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Complicated
Loveable characters: No
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Complicated

A good Lovecraftian story that starts strong and ends flat. Disappointing how the sole Black character is treated. Name dropping an actual Dahmer victim is really crass and unnecessary. I think there’s things to like here but overall it just doesn’t land for me.
