Recommended to me on the premise of being a horror haunted house. Misleading and though I do adamantly admire the authors view on standing with Palestinians as mentioned in their acknowledgments that is where my love for this novel begins and ends.
I wish I had read the trigger warnings for this novel before picking it up or that the bookseller would’ve mentioned it before selling. I understand it’s a fact of the world but as I’ve lived through these triggers myself I’d rather not go through it again even vicariously.

It’s difficult to review this book without spoiling anything, so I’ll just say this: The prose is utterly gorgeous and haunting—Rivers Solomon is an absolutely incredible writer and storyteller.

This could definitely be a triggering book, so please read with care! I didn’t find anything overly graphic or explicit, but there are definitely some disturbing things that occur. The trigger warnings in the “graphic” section I included were because they were themes throughout the story.
