Wow in a good way

I’m not typically a horror genre fan but I enjoyed this book! I enjoyed Linda Jones narration. The author wrote it well. My jaw was on the floor at the end. I wasn’t expecting that ending. Overall a quick and excellent listening.
It does a quite of a bit of cursing, but it was part of the story.

Now I get why some people hate horror

[CONTAINS SPOILERS]

The concept of this novella was good enough for me to finish it, despite not enjoying it as much as I'd hoped. The young child character was embarrassing to listen to. The dialogue was so bad, I'm not sure if anyone could have made it better. Actually, I'm not sure if this author has ever met a child. Or been one.

Content warning: "Smell my farts, sis!" That poor VA.

unsatisfying ending and nothing is revealed. moments that should have been cathartic were not, because I was too distracted by plot holes and poor character choices.

[SPOILER SPOILER SPOILER]

witches I can get behind, but a castaway'd alcoholic picking baby wipes and Listerine before NyQuil? seems convenient.

good book...needs better ending

good story. didn't like ending. but it kept me on the edge of my seat

it was alright?

I enjoyed like 90% of the book. liked the premise and where it was going and then the ending lost me. or the last 10% of the book? I don't know. there were parts that really packed a punch and then some parts that were just a tap on the shoulder.

Probably would not have finished if the book was any longer.

It felt like half the book was characters repeating phrases 3+ times in a row. I’ll give the benefit of the doubt that there was a literary purpose for this but it really got on my nerves. It is probably less grating when reading the book versus listening.
