Katie Colson's Reviews > The Eyes Are the Best Part

I had every anticipation for this to be a 5 star horror. In my top 10 of the year even. But I am very sad to tell you that I don't get the hype with this one.

We spend 75% of the book watching the mom cry and be utterly pathetic over men. The other 25% is her daughter's reactions to it, racism and a sprinkling of horror.

It felt very heavy handed in most of it's messaging. I wanted the gore and the freaky weirdness. But it happened far too late for me to be invested in any of it.
