voilajean's review against another edition

adventurous dark mysterious tense fast-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? Plot
• Strong character development? Yes
• Diverse cast of characters? Yes

I really liked this, but toward the end,

Spoiler

the creepy kids are referred to as 'golems' and we find out that they are trying to steal the neighborhood kids for a witch

so I'm not comfortable giving this a star rating.

a really fun halloween read! the atmosphere was just fantastic + i loved how well the author captured the spookiness of the season. this story had horrors of a supernatural nature juxtaposed with completely human horrors, which is a trope i'm always into. admittedly, the plot isn't very strong, but it's a fun, mindless kind of read with some really good horror moments.

my only complaint is that this book put the spooky spirit in my body + it's only march, lmao!
