Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for giving me a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
I really wanted to enjoy this book more. It felt like it wanted to be a fever dream style of horror, hinting at the paranormal and our main character perhaps having a darker past. Yet, the few things that were explained or revealed felt like bigger plot holes than anything. I'm alright with a horror that feels like it doesn't make sense, but the vibes are right. However, this wavered back and forth too much between the logical and illogical, making it hard to know what the book was attempting to do. I enjoyed the plot, at its core, but the execution missed the mark for me.
