Everyone that hates this book is wrong I’m sorry

This was so perfectly dark and mysterious. I loved the setting and not being able to quite put my finger on what was happening. Once it was all revealed my jaw DROPPED. 

The first half of the book is a little slow moving but once I got the the halfway point I genuinely couldn’t put it down. The reveals just got more and more insane and I ate it up! 

I love how it ended and I will DEFINITELY be reading more books by Silvia Moreno-Garcia

the parts of this i liked, i really liked. that being said, the body horror (i guess) at the end was a bit Much for me, and I kept going, "wow, this is....really similar to rebecca" (which i loved -- i think i would have enjoyed this a bit more if i hadn't read them so close together)

L'action commence très tard dans le livre, mais une fois qu'elle est commencer, c'est difficile de décrocher.

It's a nice idea for a book but it wasn't executed well.

Loved this novel!  It’s creepy and challenging and deliciously frightening!  The writing is excellent, and I loved the main character.  She was complex and imperfect but so brave.  I won’t be eating mushrooms for a while, though.  Definitely worth reading!  5 stars
