Shriek is hard to get through, i actually stopped in the middle and came back a year or two later and finished the last half and Finch, which i love. i think Shriek is intentionally a difficult read, because it's difficult for Janice to tell the story. you experience a little bit of that with her.
Finch is quite graphic at the end, but i think it was worth it. i really enjoyed the characters and rising action in it, and of course the descriptions are great. i liked that although Finch did take action and participate directly, he was also often just watching shit happen without much control. he was a good pov character i think.

Unexpected in so many ways. Dark, expansive, absolutely remarkable.
