I loved the little twist in the end! I think Paul Tremblay is really good in writing endings! 

the Stephen Graham Jones joke made me giggle!

I really enjoyed this! Such a fun spin on the classic possession story. I love that the main perspective is from 8-year-old Merry, who doesn't quite understand what is going on with her sister, Marjorie, and as such makes you as the reader question

whether Marjorie is faking everything, whether she's mentally unwell, or whether she really is possessed by a demon

. The family as a whole is very disconnected and their personalities clash with each other, making each interaction exciting and tense. An excellent read!
