Devil in Ohio

I just realised I never posted a review for this but this was nothing like anything I had read before and I am excited to watch the series because it looks fantastic and twisted :)

Thank you to NetGalley and Feiwel & Friends for providing me with this ARC. I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.

This was an ARC I requested before it released, some time ago, because the synopsis sounded really cool (and I love the cover!). Unfortunately, I didn't get around to it by its release, and then the negative reviews started going up, further dissuading me. I finally decided to give it a fair shot for myself, but in all honesty, part of me wishes I'd listened to those other reviews.

I couldn't believe what I was hearing. A psychiatric patient was going to be staying with us. This was completely bizarre.

There was something off about Mae. Not like I thought she was a vampire or a werewolf or anything. She just seemed out of place in the regular world.

ETA: Commenting on negative reviews of your own book to try to criticize the quality of the review? Never a good look. I definitely won't be picking anything else up from this author, or recommending this book to anyone.
