The beginning was a little slow then there was a lot happening. After the twist was revealed I wasn’t as interested in how they solve the issue. I liked Francis as a character with some complexity. The rest of the Doyle family gave me the Ick and I think that was the point. The author did a good job characterizing the Doyle family
I don’t think the book was bad I just think it was mysterious, then the mystery was revealed and shocking and everything else was just fine.

If you like the body horror part of this, I recommend also reading Sorrowland by Rivers Solomon!

I have nothing bad to say about it. This was a decadent sort of unsettling that had me guessing right up to the very end. I had such a blast reading it.
