“Beware the woods and the dark, dank, deep. He'll follow you home, and he won't let you sleep.”
This book was a perfect spoopy read for me. Lots of creepy imagery, disturbing local urban legends, an atmospheric AF setting, and that POV character rep. Glorious.
It also reminded me a lot of Vicious, by Victoria Schwab, which I also really, REALLY enjoyed. And it wasn't just because of the whole superhero thing. Although that was definitely a big reason I kept thinking of Vicious as I read this book.
The final third of of the book had a few pacing issues. There were definitely moments that would have hit harder if there'd been more build-up to them. But the ending did a really good job of bringing closure to the story at hand, while leaving room for potential sequels. And I really hope there's a sequel.
