This was great! Alternately creepy as fuck horror and fun 2000s sapphic romance. I loved the integration of Irish folklore and the slice of life details from Dublin university life and the student theatre society. I found both modes equally compelling and was thrilled when they came together later in the book. The book's setup is that a young woman finds a corpse on the road in the middle of the night, thus begins her night of horrors that stretches into her children's lives decades later.
