I enjoyed this book. I could have used more creepy Ghostdaddy scenes, but what I got was quite fun. I was surprised by the twist at the end, actually. Depressingly, no matter how much one tries to fix things, sometimes, one is just hosed.

I also liked all the bootlegging descriptions. But I'm the person who had a lady hardon for all the descriptions of ship stuff in The Terror, so don't mind me.

So, yes, Southern Gothic fun. Yes, I would classify this as horror. But Gothic isn't always terrifying. It's a mood, an aesthetic, a subgenre. And I really liked our hero.

This isn't a very informative review, but it's been a busy day.
