A twisty and at times gruesome haunted house story
The Handyman Method is an interesting and at times gruesome haunted house, self-destructive family tale that I think any Nick cutter fan will enjoy.I will say that until this point I've never read anything by Andrew F. Sullivan so I cant really speak to his voice in this co authored book. But I am a huge fan of Nick Cutter (The troop is one of my all time favorite books and I have The Deep and Little Heaven ready to go for this year) and I feel like his style is really on display here. So that would probably be my warning to anyone considering picking this up. I see most people kind of divided with Nick's stuff. Either really digging them or not finishing them and I don't think this novel is gonna be any different for most. But if your like me and you dig his horror, this one is another banger.Its a familiar haunted house premise. A family going through some issues move into a house that turns into a fixer upper and horror ensues. Before its all said and done though I was pretty impressed and disturbed. No spoilers but there's some great gore here and the way Youtube played a role in everything was pretty dope. I really had got some The Shinning vibes from it all but more recent and gruesome in its own way.I'd definitely recommend this one to anybody. If I could say anything negative it'd be that some of the stuff in here was a little hard to imagine for me. There's alot of stuff going on mechanically so to speak.But in the end I dug the family at the heart of this and their plight. When the gore hit it was aggressive and descriptive and more then once I caught myself reading with my mouth open wide.Good stuff

Domestic Horror
Weird blend of domestic horror (the war between the sexes, men and their tools and the secrets women keep. A take on the Bad Place and strange eldritch demons with the little home made weird tech that a handyman can make. A sly satire of suburban tract houses and the insidious things underneath. A real page turner.

Not what I expected
Not really sure how to put it in words other than it was too wordy. The story rambled on and I got lost several times. I really enjoyed the other books I've read by Cutter but this was disappointing.
