A very spooky tale with a excellent strong female lead, perfect for an October read! My only complaint was the end got a bit chaotic, but I often find that to be the case with horror climaxes, and so I don't actually think that was an issue with the book, but perhaps more my feelings about horror.

Spooky but not super scary
Apart from the scene in the graveyard where she thought she saw something move

It started out very strong but the big reveal and final confrontation was very lackluster and disappointing. The body horror and hose descriptions, however, did creep me out so some parts of the novel were successful. I also hated the actual ending. Definition of trite.

Very well written and creepy in the right way. I usually avoid horror or horror-adjacent books, but I was hooked.
