“An absorbing, twisted tale of psychosis, murder, and grief.”– Kirkus Reviews “Part of Elsby’s brilliance can be attributed to her ability and willingness to portray the calculating, obsessive, and frequently hideous truth of our interiors. Often, it can feel as though she’s lifting patterns of thought directly from inside your head. It can leave you vulnerable, shaking, wrecked. If you enter her worlds with a genuine desire for truth, you can find the most raw and ugly pieces of yourself, but maybe also transcendence and relief.”– B.R. Yeager, author of Negative Space, Amygdalatropolis, and Pearl Death “No one does what Elsby does. Psychros is thrilling and terrifying. Bursting with dangerous, sexy rage, it’s evidence of a gripping and unstoppable intellect.”– Lindsay Lerman, author of I’m From Nowhere, and What Are You
