2.5??? - *scratches head* Sooo here we have a conundrum. This had a nice prose, the cast was eclectic and diverse, and the plot plops African demons and spirits and general mythos into southern U.S. Cool stuff! But everything was so...strangely low stakes? And it never gave me space to emotionally connect with most of it.

Kind of feels like I ate an entire cake and only realized at the end that the middle was completely hollow.
