I have taken this test and read quick little things online about the types but I loved getting deeper in this book. I loved the background of Enneagram. This was something I have been wanting to know more about. I also was curious how this author was going to address the information on it. I found it both interesting learning more about people's personality types as well as possible behaviors that can stem from it and I loved how it also showed downsides but in funny ways. I got seeped into each new part of this. I hope to buy it at some point to add to my collection.

mysterious with great atmosphere. I liked the first half better but still wanted to know what was going on. I love the lore even if it is really sad.

From the author of "the worm and his kings" comes another creepy weird tale.
I loved the concept this book uses.
The opening was my favorite stormy drive in bringing in monsterous beast. The eerie feeling it gave was a great set up for a fun horror story.
This movies into heavy type of fantasy with zombie like violence that took by surprise.
This middle part of the book began into what seemed like metphors and seemed to get a little muddy and confusing and slowed me down in my reading.
Hower the last part of the book picks back up and starts to make a little more sense and even a dash of hope. hence some light in the darkness.
I did like this book but might have liked it more if it had not been trying to have the underlying messages the way they were. I felt it was creative in that though. worth a try.
