although it was really cute and ultimately a happy ending there is a forced outing and I just was not a fan of that AT ALL. obviously look to trans and nonbinary reviewers for their opinions as well before deciding if this book is for you!

Once again I found myself on r/horrorlit and saw Elizabeth Engstrom come up as a recommended author for well-written disturbing horror.

I read both of the novellas within an afternoon and wasn't able to put them down. Both stories

When Darkness Loves Us will definitely be coming back to me in the middle of the night to haunt me with the dark twists it took and the decisions Sally Ann made which we are left to reckon with.

Beauty Is... will be a story I see myself coming back to of just how unnerving it is. At the end of this novella, my heart ached for Martha and the ways that trauma came to steal her away.

the reddit thread that made me want to put this on my tbr

yes I will be reading all nita tyndall's works and taking no questions

stopped at about 48%. I enjoy it when I'm in it but right now it's just not holding my attention so I will be coming back to it.
