⭐ Reader reviews
Reader rating
A friend from my book club recommended it. Print is comfortable for late-night reading. It leans on old gothic bones and makes them creak convincingly. Already eyeing my next order.
First order from this shop. It is the kind of horror that rewards reading with the lights on. The ending is bleak and honest, not a twist for the sake of one. My only regret is not ordering it sooner.
Been meaning to get this one for a while. The ending is bleak and honest, not a twist for the sake of one. Recommended with reservations.
Took a chance on it after reading the description here. It is the kind of horror that rewards reading with the lights on. There's real craft in how much is left unsaid.
First order from this shop. Good introduction if you have not read this author before.
