Growing up, I always loved ghost/monster hunting shows. Mystery Hunters, Ghost Hunters, Ghost Adventures, Destination Truth. The list could go on. And this book fits perfectly into that little niche. An island where no one goes with a god who can be awakened by eight deaths. And Hollywood is knocking on the island's door to investigate. I liked Alon and their perspective on the events. Everyone else was unlikeable in their own way. This is a twisty, creepy read perfect for a night in.
Graphic: Death and Grief
Moderate: Body horror, Racism, Classism, and Death of parent
Minor: Colonisation
