Ana and Reid needed a lucky break.

The horrifically complicated birth of their first child has left Ana paralyzed, bitter, and struggling: with mobility, with her relationship with Reid, with resentment for her baby. That's about to change with the words any New Yorker would love to hear—affordable housing lottery.

They've won an apartment in the Deptford, one of Manhattan's most revered buildings with beautiful vistas of Central Park and stunning architecture.

Reid dismisses disturbing events and Ana’s deep unease and paranoia as the price of living in New York—people are odd—but he can't explain the needle-like bite marks on the baby.

“When the owner of a horror-centric bookstore passionately recommends a book, you listen—and Nestlings did not disappoint. It’s packed with everything you want in horror: creeping suspense, human imperfection, revenge, gritty gore, and some of the most unsettling gargoyles you’ll ever meet. But beneath the dread and darkness is a surprising thread of hope, a reminder that even the worst times eventually pass—though maybe not if you’re stuck in a cursed luxury building. Gripping, chilling, and weirdly profound, Nestlings is horror at its finest. A must-read for anyone who loves their scares with metaphorical heft and teeth. A happy ending to the year for me with this read!”
