MARY by Nat Cassidy took me by surprise in all of the best ways! 

 

The Foreword and Afterword were both exceptionally insightful and, I’m sure I won’t be the first to say it, but Nat was meant to tell Mary’s story. 

 

In Carrie fashion, Mary follows a nearly-50-year-old woman as she enters her second puberty in life, while also returning to her hometown to face down the demons of her past 👻 

 

This book was full of gore, women empowerment, and soooo many dead people! It also really brought back that nostalgia that can be found in older horror novels 🖤 

 

OH WAIT, THERE’S ALSO A CULT! 

 

So pleased to have started my Nat Cassidy journey with this gem right here 🛁
