Ok I get it the writing is good, there’s some amazing prose especially towards the end. And there’s most certainly some metaphoric self acceptance message and certainly deeper meaning within much of the symbolism, BUT I couldn’t care less. The author literally made me hate everyone and then expected me to care.

Ok I didn’t see the cult coming, but I will say I pegged her being the serial killer reincarnated.

Do people actually like this book? I wouldn’t even call this book horror. It feels like a psychological menopause induced fever dream where some psycho old bat starts killing everyone and everything, too selfishly wrapped up in her own messed up mind to realize what she’s been doing.

Calling it now this crazy bitch Mary is gonna kill the poor Elenor girl. 🙄Obviously she was going to kill the “demon dog” in NY, saw that one coming a mile away as soon as the barking was mentioned.

Perfect book to fall asleep to. Certainly not scary, pretty depressing, but definitely not scary.

So not invested
