1st Book for Winterween
- Creepy Novella
- Read in the dark


Each chapter was a: THE FUCK BITCH?

the premise sounds so interesting, I actually thought it was the plot but IT WAS JUST THE FIRST CHAPTER? and the shit that rolls after it gets weird and weirder and so fucking weird I'm not sure what genre this is?

Just what the fuck?

Also the climax/middle point of the story was kinda okay and kinda boring and by 70% into it, I was over the book already.

I'm just not sure what the intent of this book is... TERRIFYING? Nope, but if you like just WEIRD HORROR then I think you'll definently like this book.

However this was too weird for me and kinda boring and kinda dragged on for my taste and the character's logic just got annoying and repetitive.



And I still don't know what is real and what is not....




Sometimes the real heroes, the sacrifice they make is their own legend or memory, or even their life, right? Sometimes the way you know you’ve done good is that the whole town hates you and wants you dead. That there even are still people to hate you and want you dead, that’s success right there.

There in the black slime of the creek bed was a naked white mannequin, this giant Ken Doll reaching for the sky with the one arm he had left.
You better believe he was our toy for that whole summer.
