Oh my God this book is so good. I devoured the audiobook in about a day.
Different ways to describe it: 
  • Dukes of Hazzard but gay and haunted
  • Someone read The Dream Thieves by Maggie Stiefvater and went "this could be gayer and scarier"
It's spooky and visceral and filled with unrequited longing, gay panic (the queer kind not the murder kind), and fast cars. So fucking good.
