Wake the Bones by Elizabeth Kilcoyne
3.0
challenging dark sad tense medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Complicated
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Complicated

Mystical, deeply rural, grim af. I struggled to get my footing with this one, but I appreciated it’s deep sense of setting and thoughtful depictions of life in rural Kentucky. Gothic horror fans, YA and otherwise, will find a lot to love.
