Normally I’m a big proponent of going into books blind, especially horror. But this is one I think would benefit from a little pre-reading to fully appreciate the themes.
And although it did add to the fever dream experience that is White is for Witching, I would recommend not reading the majority of it in the several days immediately following a major surgery. Like I did.
But damn, do I love a sentient house.
(Also, heeeeavy trigger warning for ED on this one.)
