Loved this atmospheric, mystery/thriller from Ashley Winstead. I’ve really enjoyed all of her novels! This book gave Where the Crawdads Sing vibes but… darker… with a lot of Twilight references 🤔 I loved seeing Ruth’s character arc, especially seeing the contrast between past & present. And you’ve gotta love a morally grey MMC 😏

<b> Midnight is the Darkest Hour </b> is a twisted, unhinged beast

If you enjoy occultism, heavy religious themes and being VERY mad in thrillers, then this is the book for you!! 

Woven with dark themes of greed, power and oppression, this book tickled me in just the right way 😈👿

THANK YOU NetGally and Aria & Aries for providing an ARC of this book
