Jim's Review

🐛
Hendrix wrote a demonic possession novel that's also a heartfelt story about female friendship, and Jim is 100% here for that combo. The 80s nostalgia is pitch-perfect without being obnoxious, and the horror escalation is genuinely disturbing. It's like if John Hughes directed The Exorcist. This worm laughed, cringed, and got a little misty-eyed. Not the scariest horror out there, but one of the most fun.
