The Butterfly Garden by Dot Hutchison
Haunting, beautiful, and disturbing all at once, it makes you think about survival, silence, and how trauma can twist someone’s sense of safety. I didn’t love every part (I expected a scarier villain, to be honest), but the writing pulled me in completely. The mix of horror and reflection gave me chills, and I found myself stopping on certain lines just to breathe them in.
