This was a great immersive fantasy. 

I loved the style of writing - we got glimpses of the history and founding of the settlement, while following the main story of a girl living there in later years. The world building is clear and believable and I quickly grew to like Greer and hope for her. I loved her pluck and determination to forge her own path. 

The creatures created in this story are scary but fascinating. I enjoyed the slow build and reveal of them, and of the depths of their lore. 

I found the ending disappointing and satisfying and hopeful and sad all in equal measure. It was a great end to the story, and I appreciated the messiness of it.
