This was good, but it was way too long. It’s hard for me to believe horrors need to be longer than 280-300 pages. The 80s vibes were immaculate, but, reading this in 2024, it’s hard to read the slurs used and the misinformation around the AIDS epidemic—even if it’s accurate to how ppl acted in the 80s

The horror was really good and gross and I enjoyed reading this, even if I don’t love that it’s a slow burn

This book had me ravenous. I couldn't wait to read the next part as I finished each chapter. The scares were well-written and often had me physically recoiling. I even had to put it down for a good ol' "nope" at one point. I might have to re-read this for my October scares.
