What I was impressed with was how dark and gory it was. Perfect for horror! 🤣

I'd like to read this, but I'm 17th on 4 copies at the library so not looking good for getting it this month.


Damon R. Caraway | 6 comments Just finished! Interesting concept, but I understand the real horror is the treatment of Asian women.


Courtney  | 7 comments my copy just came in from the library! starting it today and hope to finish it on time.


Courtney  | 7 comments Just finished, and I’m honestly conflicted—sad, disturbed, but completely wowed by the author. It’s haunting and beautiful, and it’s definitely sticking with me

I'm down to #5 on 4 copies at the library. Will it arrive before the end of the month.....


Morgues (booyoumorgues) | 12 comments I went in pretty blind and I’m really glad I did bc I loved this. 🖤


Patrick Ellard | 29 comments I enjoyed this although I felt the second half was not as strong as the first. The characters are little too accepting of the situation they find themselves in and the ending, although it fits the allegory of the story, was a little bit of a let down. It's well written though and creepy at times. and unintentionally funny at others.
