Young Leon and Ursula had little except each other. Mother was driven by a psychotic need to clean—constantly—everything in sight. Father was consumed by his medical practice and an analytical approach to life. But he understood the sensual hunger growing inside his children’s young bodies. He knew they could help each other answer, “The Need.” Father had Science. Father had Reason. And he had Pin. Pin who answered all the children’s questions in a voice not unlike the doctor’s. Father’s clever trick. Father’s brilliant illusion. But then there was the accident and Mother and the doctor were dead. Still there was Pin—who had so much to tell then even yet…whose enigmatic stare held such wisdom. There would just be the three of them now. Quiet Leon, beautiful and frightened Ursula, and wise, implacable Pin. They were all each of them would need. Ever.

Mehso-so

pulp-y horror isn't my usual flavor of horror but it's always fun trying new things. the base concept of this book is fascinating and the story can be tense when it wants to be BUT it's also a bit too meandering in the middle. the ambiguous ending was also a bit disappointing to me since I was enjoying the straight-faced weirdness that the book indulges in. this is a pretty fast read but I was still wanting a bit more substance.

ErinSBecker Good on you for trying something new! 4y

I did a reshuffling of book picks.
Vote on your choice (if any) for our next #TeamCthulhu pick.
I ♥♥♥ Relic and have not read any of the others.
Neiderman is one twisty puppy. He is also the one who writes the V.C. Andrews books since her death (unconfirmed). I read a few of his other books a longgggg time ago and remember them being a little disturbing (but I was probably too young to read them).
