Welcome to Litsy!

This is another one I ended up being rather disappointed with. I didn't understand what era this was supposed to deviate from, so at times the dialogue was corny and forced. Since I didn't have a specific era to attribute it to, the tone/voice of the book wasn't very good or authentic. It also felt way too long. The audiobook reader also was only good when she was not reading male voices, then it was cringeworthy.

Blerg, the audiobook reader is wonderful when she isn't doing male voices. Then, she kinda ruins it. 😑

Methinks I'll need more lovecraftian reads after #TheIronThorn. 🐙

Enjoyable speculative fiction with a steampunk/Lovecraft mashup, not terribly well-represented by the cover, I must say 😂. What is she doing, holding up her shirt like a Gothic damsel-in-distress? I liked the heroine (not damsel-y at all), the play on an alternative 1950s US, and the imagery was well-done with a good creepy vibe🕯, good for #scaretober 🎃
