The title of this book immediately drew me in to wanting to read this book. Cannibal nuns? FROM OUTER SPACE? Yep! It's like Mystery Science Theater meets B-horror!

The book started out with total slapstick horror vibes, akin to the comedy spoof sequel of The Exorcist starring Linda Blair and Leslie Nielsen, Repossessed. The priest's name was even Father Mayeye (which still makes me laugh). I also wonder if the author is a Grey's Anatomy fan because I was introduced to married couple Meredith and Derek and then another priest was named Father O'Malley. EIther way, I am picking up what the author is putting down!

Then at around 15% the style changed to me. I was no longer laughing like I had been and I was confused and struggling to identify who new characters were that kept being introduced when I was still attached to the others I just met. There was a good 20% of the book I read where it felt like I fell asleep in a movie and woke up and knew nothing that was going on because of how the tone changed and all the characters were brand new. Maybe I missed a transition somewhere and that is what threw me a bit.

I enjoyed the rest of the book and was extremely intrigued and interested in the nuns, their bodily descriptions, what they were doing with bodies and why, etc. It is such a fun concept! But I thought I would be laughing a little more based on the first quarter of the book or so. It went from a campy slapstick horror to more of just a drama horror to me.

It takes a lot more than what I have to come up with something so creative and unique and get it all down on paper. Bradshaw's mind is definitely full of twisted and amazing stories and I am excited to check out some of the backlog and see what else he comes up with! 3.5 stars!
