It’s fantastic! It’s a combination of story types. A curse story, a Native American Folktale, and even a sports story. Kinda. It is clearly a Horror story. Highly recommend!

This has been the book that I kept starting, walking away from, starting again…. I’m mad that I waited so long to give it it’s due diligence. Amazing.

I put off reading this for so long because I thought it would end up being overrated. It’s not. It’s beyond every expectation I could have had. One of the first books in a WHILE to give me actual nightmares and currently has me literally sobbing over the ending.
