Perfect for a fan of bad fiction. I dearly love it for that. (0 more)
So much. Absurdly silly world-building around classic folklore, ridiculous plot points (clumsiness as a motivation for over-protectiveness, credulous parents whose child can do WTFever she likes no matter how many red flags her behavior should raise). (0 more)
Hilariously bad and awful

This horror novel is perfect for fans of The Terror. The story sucks you in before you know it and soon you are as unsure and terrified as the protagonists. The blend of folklore and legend, of myth and supernatural, of real and make believe are what keeps you reading long after it’s given you the creeps.

Heilig’s debut novel is inspired by Hawaiian myth and folklore and has an entirely diverse cast with a biracial main character, a Persian love interest, etc. (I’ve completely forgotten about everyone else).

Have I mentioned time traveling is through maps?! If the Hawaiian myth and folklore don't grab you, then the maps definitely should.
