Not sure what I was expecting, but I was not expecting this. Wow.
I absolutely loved this book, I did not want to put it down. It was a little messed up in parts but I think that was part of its appeal.
Feels like American Gods written by Stephen King on a sadistic streak. Really enjoyed the first 75% (the rest feels like an unnecessary epilogue).
One of the few books I'm rereading, not because I just love it so much, but because it needs a second read just so you actually understand what the heck is even happening. I liked it on first read, but that doesn't mean I actually understood much. I keep getting Umbrella Academy vibes from this one, if mr terrible garbagesack had wanted to give normal kids both trauma AND magic, rather than just find some kids with magic and skip straight to traumatizing them.
