I wanted to love this book so much more than I did. It's a dark comedy/horror inspired by Christmas which is exactly my cup of tea. However the comedy didn't really resonate with me and it was too slow a build. The horror aspects were pretty quick and there wasn't enough build to them to make them suspenseful. The final 3rd of the book was pretty good, but it also had a 1940s war trope that I'm so bored with.
