I really enjoyed this book! It’s strange to think that this was his second novel, especially given how well written this is. It’s part Vampire novel part commentary on the death of small towns across the US. It had some chapters that make you say “hmm that seemed kind of random,” but  it all ties back together pretty nicely.
