Here's hoping I'll forget everything that happened in this short story by next year so I can read it again!
WHAT DID I JUST READ?? The amount of times my brain blew in this short as fuck book. That's really so hard to do. I thoroughly enjoyed it. Just what I needed right now. I love it so much.
Better than I was expecting, but still not a knock out of the park. A short little thriller for the Christmas season.
Thank you to netgalley for this arc.
