The Twisted Ones

Really wanted to love this book. A lot of the concepts here are good but it shoots itself in the foot with the framing device and constant jokes that ruins all tension. You know from the start things will turn out fine. And while the main character is actually hilarious which makes it even harder to focus on the creepy things that are happening when she's cracking jokes. I don't think it's unrealistic to react to stress and fear that way but because she is writing this book after the fact when we know she is fine it just seemed like she was making fun of the whole situation. I think just the jokes without this framing device I would have welcomed.

On the other hand I do appreciate we know that the dog is going to be fine the whole time I suppose.
