If you can’t handle animals brutally dying, this is not the book for you. If you aren’t a fan of basketball, this is not the book for you. It wasn’t a bad book, I just couldn’t get behind all the animal brutality. & that’s a me problem I guess. How the antagonist is set up is pretty cool, it was a little confusing in the beginning. I think switching between main characters so early on threw me off for a minute. But again, probably just a me problem.

a solid 4.5 star read! i really enjoyed practically everything about this book, except from: 1) the fact that it took me around the first 20% of it to actually understand what was going on and wanting to know more and 2) the parts where basketball became so emphasized (i get it's a narrative device, but still). apart from these, i liked pretty much everything: dynamic writing style, funny scenes for some comic relief, very graphic gore for the spooky vibes, and an animal-ish entity seeking revenge after being killed? sign me the hell up! and i also liked how the author introduces notions like native american tradition and urban indians (e.g. "growing up traditional", knowing how to perform certain ceremonies such as a sweat, etc.) and i loved the ending as well! PLEASE check trigger warnings before reading this, though <3

THis book was a new type of horror for me that I hadn't read before. The perspective shifts don't seem out of the ordinary until the "you" phrases come out with second person. I don't think I have read something like that before, but it gave a watched/watching feeling to the whole novel.  The story was great, the descriptions and general writing style I loved, I could truly see the movie playing out before me. I'd recommend to any fans of horror.
