i would recommend that almost nobody reads this book. maybe i am just a wimp when it comes to horror but i felt like this was so unnecessarily gross and stomach-churning. i do have to say the plot was so well thought out, the characters were very well-rounded, and the writing was incredible. that is why the rating is so high. please please check content warnings!!!!!!!

This one hurt. It really really hurt. I wasn't so sure about it for the first 50 pages but once I got to the 100 mark I was super invested. The dynamics in this fucked up, evil family were really interesting and heartbreaking to read about and the book presents you with a complicated but believable protagonist that you really want to see win.
