Thank you to netgalley and Page Street Publishing for the eARC! 

I was hooked from the start! I did make the mistake of reading it before bed and gave myself nightmares ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜ญ Loved the character development throughout the novel! The pacing is also well done, I was engaged the whole way through even while half hiding my face behind a pillow ๐Ÿ™Š

Itโ€™s a scary but also deep, emotional read with explorations of grief and guilt. This is such a unique horror novel and one of my faves of the month! And the ending was so perfectly done ๐Ÿ˜ฎ I canโ€™t wait to read more from this author in the future and eventually add a physical copy to my shelves.
