Why experience a real life pandemic, when you can read about it in fiction??

This book was incredible. Creepy, mesmerizing, and hauntingly written. Quite dark, and a little messed up.

It's also very short, and I read it in a little over 24 hours.

I read The Luminous Dead earlier this year, and honestly I can't believe it's written by the same author. The creepiness is definitely there, but the writing style and setting was just so different, but really well done.

Evelyn as a character was just *perfection* I loved everything about her, from her backstory, to her motivations. The ending did confuse me a little, and you're left with a lot of questions, but it fits the overall aesthetic of this story.

The epilogue though...I love it and I sort of want to see more about Violetta.
