The use of Gothic space in the middle of Brooklyn was spot on. The characters were well drawn. The ending was a little over the top and threw the book into another subgenre, but that's not necessarily a detraction. Who doesn't love an angry black woman with a Smith and Wesson?
Content warning for violence, medical experimentation, racism, manipulation, graphic descriptions, and related topics. I liked this book, I thought it was really successful in incorporating real issues like gentrification into a fiction. The main characters were interesting, but I felt like there was no dimension to the bad guys. The setting was incredible, and it felt like the neighborhood was it's own character. I liked the psychological elements to the first half of the novel, but by the end it felt unrealistic. By the last quarter of the novel, I wasn't sure how it would end, and it felt a tad unbelievable when it did end.
