The way everything tied together was phenomenal. It feels like coraline but more grown up and with more at risk. Beautiful writing wrapped itself around a story that felt brand new in a familiar way. The narrator being mute was an interesting way to tell the story, and it helps the readers feel her frustration at every new turn.
Graphic: Death
Minor: Body horror
repetitive mention of ghouls, such as rotting/decaying ghosts.
