That was nuts! And gross! It was a more gruesome version of Rosemary’s Baby and it really packed a punch. I enjoyed the setting and the creatures and the dynamics of disability and Jewishness at the intersection of horror. I did find this book a little long, it felt very flat plot-wise until the end. But the payoff was really interesting and the ending was unexpected in a good way. This was a compelling horror read, would definitely recommend!
