While I usually love books that dive into folklore and culture, this one fell so flat for me. I think ultimately my issue was that the topic didn’t really seem that well-researched. The book read more like a high schooler’s paper about the superstition than something I would spend money on in a store. Thankfully I picked this up at a used sale for $1. So I guess no big loss.
