hoping to finish this today so i can give it to a friend tmrw :)

does a senile old woman having a lucid moment & telling a story make sense? sure
is it good storytelling? no, no it was not…
like i would have much rather found all this information out throughout the course of the story somehow instead of being burdened with it all in one shot

no way she read that much true crime & is that stupid… i’ll chalk it up to vampire charm i guess lol

exposition was a little heavy handed— a lot of telling not enough showing but i think the inciting incident was done well & the style/tone has shifted a bit now to one i enjoy more
