In general, I really liked this book. I like the larger metaphors and the inclusion of crime + supernatural along with explorations of toxic masculinity and queerness.
I think there is a lot of good in this book but I won’t lie I did get a bit lost a few times. I was listening to the audiobook and I think that made it a bit hard to keep all of the characters and their specific plots straight. However, I do think this book is well worth the read and I may pick it back up in physical form to re-read when I have the chance!
