This was my first Augustina Bazterrica novel and I am a fan! This shit was dark, in the best of horror fan ways!! It’s very in your face from the first paragraph and has no room for chill. I was on the edge of my seat & tense from start to finish. The plot was one I hadn’t come across yet, it is character driven which worked so well with the way it was written. I was able to visualize everything, which in some cases made me visibly uncomfortable and my family were raising eyebrows at me. I felt for the characters; some I rooted for and others I wanted to see their demise. I will without a doubt be reading more from this author and recommending The Unworthy to any horror fans.
