I meant to read this in October, or “spooky season” as everyone seems to be calling it these days, but time got away from me. And also, doesn't a season imply more than one month? So whatever, I missed it by a few days, but I don't care. I'm glad I finally got around to it, because while not totally gripping or anything, I enjoyed the reading experience, the light spookiness of a Headless-Horseman retelling with a (somewhat unrealistic) feminist lens. The very end may have bumped up the rating a tiny bit (the confrontation with Brom) because it was just so well-done. A solid 3.5.
