Immensely impressed so far!

Wow. 😯

So far, so good! Could be the best one of the year if it carries on in this “vein” 🥁

Such amazingly creepy atmosphere!!!

Wanderlust evoking words. An insight in to Southern American (of N America) culture, if a slightly caricatured version!

Unusual style. I like the language used. I would probably enjoy more if I had a better understanding of Southern gothic / folklore prior to reading. Still, a nice read between uni work!

Unusual start! Quite the wordsmith. Impressed so far 🤞🏽

I like the writing style a lot, but I cannot gel with any of the characters! I think this is deliberate in the writing, hence why I like it so much! But a lack of empathy for the main characters is making it a little harder to find a flow.

Really strong start. Starting to get into the rhythm of El-Arifi’s writing by and world building. Nice book to follow up finishing the Crescent City series!

Just as good as the other two series by SJM! Loving that these books are longer too.

Not as difficult to get into as I thought it would be! Based on reviews I thought it’d be a struggle, but it’s a great pace imo!
