O Holy Shit

By Amanda Ruzsa

Lily's life is a nightmare. Her parents are cruel, and home feels like a prison. Then, they win a trip to the North Pole--an all-inclusive holiday that seems too good to be true. For her parents, it's all about the money. For Lily, it's a chance to feel happy just once. But the North Pole isn't the winter wonderland everyone expects. And Santa? He's not the jolly man from the stories.

Great end of year read

The title of this book is very accurate. Just figured I'd throw that out there. This story come out the gate and doesn't stop until that last page when everything that's been going on comes together and the picture becomes heartbreakingly clear. I see this story as a macabre union of Extreme Horror and Grief Horror. While it presents itself as extreme horror, by the end you'll understand why I tossed that grief label on it. This was my first read by this author but it won't be my last. I really liked the writing style and the fast pace the story had and the character building on the MC was perfect imo. There's a couple of minor errors, none of it is anything that will drastically slow pace or draw the reader out of the story; I would maybe get a second set eyes to go over it and fix them though, just so it has a cleaner read. I normally wouldn't bring errors up since I was initially handed this story as a PDF, I figured I toss a few pennies toward the author like I usually do when I stumble an ARC, giveaway PDF, or a print I have also on KU. And the fact that the version I read is the live version I had no choice but to mention what I spotted.
