Description
One of Goodreads Most Popular Horror of 2022
Named one of Esquire's Best Horror of the Year
2004: Caroline Sawyer sees dogs everywhere. Snarling, barking, teeth snapping that no one else seems to notice. As these delusions begin to take shape in the violent, visceral sculptures she makes in a trance-like state, her fiancé is convinced she needs help. But Caroline's past is a dark cellar, filled with repressed memories and a lurking horror that others around her can't understand. As past demons become a present threat, both Caroline and Lila must chase the source of this unrelenting, oppressive power to its malignant core. Brilliantly paced and unapologetically fierce, Such a Pretty Smile will make you want to stand up and rage at everyone who ever told you to sit down, shut up, and smile pretty. "A righteously angry fever dream." - Paul Tremblay "Darkly feminist." - Karma Brown "Brutal and shocking." - emily m. danforth
