Heart Haunt Havoc was short and to the point and I devoured every minute of it. I read this in one sitting and was pleasantly surprised how much I loved it considering it’s a horror book (a genre I never thought I would read). 

The two main characters were probably some of my favorite characters ever. I am constantly searching for trans rep; these characters were some of the best rep I’ve read yet. Their stories were beautiful and heart breaking and I want nothing but good things for them both. I’d love to read several more books about their adventures together.  

The story itself was horrifying in all the best ways. I’m not a huge fan of gore, and the author did an amazing job of having gore that made an impact but was bearable for those us of that don’t love it. The mystery and the honestly terrifying imagery made this a book I simply could not put down. 

This was for sure a 5 star read and a reminder that queer and trans people belong in all genres. Even if you’re not a horror fan I highly suggest giving this a read.
