In general I do not like horror and I probably will not read this but I so enjoy how you talk about books and analyze them. It has helped me become a better reader and to know which horror books I would enjoy reading (much to my surprise).

Brother has been on my tbr for a while. Good to know I put another banger on the list lol

OMG I'm so excited! Thank you for this recommendation. I had never heard of it

I read this back in 2018, then I checked out The Shuddering and Within These Walls. All of them were finished in about two or three days because of how they captivated me. Ania Ahlborn is another of my most favorite writers. 🖤

I have had this in eBook format on my Kindle for years now. I don't know why I haven't gotten around to watching it before now. Probably something to do with the ever-increasing, never completed TBR. Might have to bump this one closer to the top after listening to this review. Thanks for the heads up! 👍

after trying unsuccessfully to
finish that terrifying first scene
three times already, I have been 
just waiting for your review before
giving it one more try - and once
again your warning makes me
shiver AND crazily curious:
you are awesome! 👀

You are absolutely right about this being one of the most popular horror books of late. I read it last year, and I thought it was pretty boring with an overly simplistic writing style until the third act, which was genuinely fantastic and surprising. The final couple of pages are terrific in particular. I get why the book is beloved, and I'm happy to keep it in my library, but not sure Ahlborn is an author for me in general. Thanks for another horror video Willow!

I read Brother back in 2018 and loved it! It was so disturbing and felt like a character study to me. Great review

Brother is one of my favorite books I read last year...I don't know how I feel by the end of the book. I keep flip flopping on weather or not it was a good ending that fits it's tone, especially around it's construct around it's themes around hope, revenge, and envy. I love it so much.

Added to my list, thank you Willow <3 I love the way you talk about books, I am jealous a little of your eloquence. You are doing a great job, keep it up. All the best to you and family. Happy Easter :)

As a hillbilly trans woman from the Wisconsin backwoods I've had people make Ed gein n silence of the lambs jokes about me . I've always been treated different for being who I am n this brand of horror really helps me cope . Also my name is misty nowadays so I'm really excited to read this book n get to know that person

Just finished it and I mean I LITERALLY just finished it. Jumped onto YouTube to look at reviews and found this vid. The book blew me away. Absolutely fantastic

I swear that description of the book reminds me so much of the movie The Hamiltons, sign me up!
