So glad I came back to this book! Truly horrifying and gruesome at times. The ending felt a little rushed and was a little too open-ended for my taste (I had the same issue with Hell Followed With Us). I related so much to Silas’ autism and his expression of it that it was almost uncanny.
Can’t wait to read Andrew Joseph White’s next book!
