This was my first read for Canadian Indie Horror Month and what a way to start the month. McGregor’s prose is really unmatched. There’s something so comforting about it maybe because I exist in a general state of melancholy, similarly to the overall tone of both Wasps & Lure. This was really such a beautiful read. I found the writing to be captivating and honestly felt like I was in a movie watching it all transpire. If you haven’t checked out McGregor yet, I’m not quite sure what you’re waiting for.
