Well, I read Devil House, didn't love it and still decide to pick up another John Darnielle, so this one's on me.
From what I remember of Devil House, this book basically has the same issue, the premise, the synopsis, the cover hint at something darker and more intriguing, the book is mostly just sad.1/?
I'm frustrated primarily because I love where this author's stories start, 1d
I was in the mood to enjoy the explorations of mother and child, wife and husband relationships, before grief and loss, the father and child relationships after, and how people react differently, how debilitating loss can be and how many not-therapist-recommended ways of managing that loss there are - some considered more acceptable than others 1d
