This was a weird little book of apocalypse + myth. I think when I bought it I thought it looked cozy? And the name of course got me. But this book has a really visceral quality, the descriptions are so well done that I felt grossed out at times. I had a hard time following the story at certain points, and I think maybe the book did a little too much to leave the reveals about the main characters until the end, but I liked it overall. I’m happy I took a chance on a weird little speculative book.
