The perfect book to read on Halloween. I was expecting a cosy mystery book, but is definitely more creepy and dark than cosy. It was gripping from start to end and it truly did give off The Get Out vibes. Slightly uncomfortable read because I do think we all know this is exactly how something like this (gentrification, white supremacy, bad people in high positions) would play out…
Graphic: Violence and Racism
Moderate: Death of parent and Death
Minor: Panic attacks/disorders
