This book was so good! It had me feeling every emotion possible. Even with the ghostly elements throughout the story, nothing felt over the top or out of place. It all blended so naturally into the lives of these characters and the community they call home, making the story feel incredibly real.
Nora stole my heart. She’s raising her three sons in the Hester Garden Projects after losing her husband to the prison system and her oldest son to gun violence. Watching her fight to protect her family while carrying so much grief was both heartbreaking and inspiring.
What really made this book stand out for me was the characters. They felt like real people, and I became invested in every one of them. I was rooting for them, hurting with them, and hoping things would work out even when it seemed impossible.
This story is about so much more than horror. It’s about family, loss, survival, and the lengths people will go to for the ones they love. For a debut novel, this was incredible. I’ll definitely be reading whatever this author writes next.
