The Luminous Dead by Caitlin Starling
5.0
Rating: 4.5/5
I was not expecting to love this as much as I did, and I honestly don't know why I even thought that! This book has so many tropes and things that I enjoy reading about-body horror, creepy and dark atmosphere, lots of tension, casual sapphic mentionings, and weird monsters!
This was AN EXPERIENCE to read and I feel like this is a book that I'll just randomly end up thinking about in the middle of the night lol!
Anyways, shout out to the random person who mentioned this book somewhere online and compared it to my favorite book of all time, [b:Wilder Girls|42505366|Wilder Girls|Rory Power|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1544204706l/42505366._SY75_.jpg|58031034], because I ended up loving this book!
