The Garden by Clare Beams

3.0

Barely a 3. The idea of the story seemed promising but I couldn’t care about the characters, everything felt lacking, and the story fell so flat. There was no momentum and barely any “horror”

Great for someone who loves watching the housewives. 

HOWEVER! I absolutely hate the author. He is so gd annoying with his attempts to be funny that really just come off as ableist and cringey. Also there was WAY too much ass kissing of Erika in this (and also a handful of references to Israel? The references didn’t have any type of effort or nuance and it just felt careless (even for 2021)).

Exactly what you'd expect from this genre/author. I do think it was more boring than previous books though :/ no real twists or elaborate connections

Annoying but fine I guess? Just not for me as a hater of unlikeable characters

I do not like this guy’s vibe. Absolute libertarian who tries to critique capitalism without actually doing so. A shallow hypothesis that lacks any intersectionality
