Wow! This book was insane. Such an interesting plot with more and more revelations. The first half was definitely slow but not in a bad way, with lots of creepy gothic elements and slow glimpses into the post apocalyptic world of the book. The second half was much faster paced and kept getting crazier and crazier. It was sad and thoughtful and scary.

It read very much like a classic horror novel prose wise, at least for me, which added a lot to the overall tone. I'm definitely excited to see what this author does next and this was a great start to my season of horror books.
