Tis the spooky season! I found this book stashed away in the sci-fi section after raiding my local bookshops for new horror novels and decided to take a chance on it. I’m pleased to say it’s become a fast favourite. The novel follows the recently divorced Kara as she moves into the spare room of her uncle’s Glory to God Museum of Natural Wonders, Curiosities, and Taxidermy, and it only gets stranger from there.
The digestible prose and intriguing premise made it easy to sink into, and once the dominos start falling, it became almost impossible to put down. The characters are lacking in number but their personalities are more than large enough to fill the vacuum. The dynamic between Kara and the barista who joins her in her explorations injected the perfect amount of levity into the work without sacrificing the tension.
Overall a perfect read for anybody who enjoys cosmic horror that occasionally wanders into the realm of fantasy. Manages to be an enjoyably fun read that will still keep you up well into the night.
