MixedBooklistAmbitious ... Rife with sardonic humor and social commentary, Barry’s genre-blending latest keeps readers at a distance, with Striker’s reflections veering into unreliable-narrator territory as her energy wanes. Though the ambiguity might not suit every reader’s taste, fans of literary horror will enjoy this thought-provoking exploration of the limitations of survival.
RaveBooklistLyrical and dreamlike ... Perfect for fans of Greek retellings and novels that explore feminine rage and empowerment, like Rachel Yoder’s Nightbitch(2021) or Kirsten Miller’s The Change (2022).
