Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for this arc

The writing in this book is wonderful, so evocative and beautiful. The story was engrossing while the characters were written so well I really felt for them all the way through, especially the main character. There are lots of layers to this book and I loved every minute of it.
It is a horror and there was a bit of gore which I usually hate but it went with the story and worked very well
The length of this book was perfect, a story well told without any fillers or rambling
Really good!

I am obsessed with this book, oh my god. It was so beautiful and cathartic and raw—I felt for Alejandra the whole way through the book, her struggles with marriage and motherhood, her failed expectations and hope, her fear and her desperation. And then, I felt for Cathy and everyone who came before them, all of these women walking the same path, fighting the same demon (literal and figurative). At the core was Alejandra's story, but it wouldn't have meant quite as much without the women around her. Including little Catrina and her own horrors. This book was the perfect mix between genuine horror and a woman's story that felt as real as my own. Couldn't recommend enough.
