Motherthing

Grabbed this during a 2-for-1 sale for Spooky Season, coincidentally didn't realize that I also had NetGalley waiting on a review (sorry)! It's a little different as a domestic horror, but I enjoyed. The narration is well done, and the character's voice comes to life. 
First and foremost, this is kind of a dark comedy. Or at the very least, the artistic voice comes across as funny. A lot of the analogies and metaphors are witty, and something I have never quite achieved in my own writing. 
In a way, I would liken this to a fictional “I'm Glad My Mom Died” as it shows a lot of the darker sides of motherhood: abuse, obsession, and dysfunction. It also goes into depression and delusion in a very atmospheric way. 
Unfortunately the end did lose me for a bit, which is when it was supposed to be building to climax, but it did end with quite the surprise. Personally a 3/5*, a fun one. 

And I absolutely love the cover!
