I think having an intersex character who is sort of saved by their intersex-ness is a really interesting premise for a story. I liked this element. I sort of understand why it was not really mentioned until close to the end/slowly alluded to and not frequently addressed head-on. That being said the book didn't feel like a horror story at all, and all of the misogyny could have been less heavy-handed. I feel like we got way too much of the patients' chatter and less plot. I also think that the use of the narrator as the spirits themselves could have been more interestingly developed...
