Jim's Review
🐛
It's a one-sitting thriller — which is saying something, because worms don't actually sit. The premise alone is irresistible, and Michaelides builds the tension like a master. Just when you're sure you've figured it out, that ending drops like a piano from a tenth-floor window. Four worms — silence has never been so loud.
