Iain Reid always does such a good job writing stories that unsettle the readers and this was no different. At first, I was unsure about this novel, since it's being marketed as a horror but there was nothing very “horror” about it, but as the story went on it definitely got there. The horror is absolutely very slow burn. The author does a really great job writing a slow decent to madness, and the theme of it being around aging was really impactful. This novel had a few very good lines about society's fear of aging, simply just “getting old”, and dying. I'm really looking forward to reading more from this author.
Thank you to Gallery, Scout Press, and NetGalley for providing me with an eBook copy to review.
